Ok - I'll try:
"A farmer sat in the Sauerland* and thought about the fact that chickens roost on bars and pigeons** sit on roofs..."
Some explanations:
*The Sauerland is a region in the center of Germany, a very rural area (some say, looks a lot like Montana). People here are said to talk very little and think deep...
** the word Taube actually has two meanings: deaf person, or pigeon.
I hope you can make some sense of it now.
Thanks for helping it on its quest!
