Just Arrived!
(A Foal Extols an Outdoor Stroll)
Hey, Mama, let’s go out to play,
Although I've not yet learned to neigh.
I’m weak in the knees,
But I’ll frolic with ease,
‘Cause it’s my discovery day.
I’ll follow you out in the grass
And try not to merely harass,
While you, my food source,
Romp and play as a horse
Until we both fall, out of gas.

ReplyDeleteBrilliant!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pic and well put together, fitting written piece.
Wow, what memories you brought back! My niece breed her AQHA mare once and I was able to see the foal just hours after birth. Momma wouldn't let me anywhere near the wee one but my niece was welcomed in without a problem.
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten how sweet the whole thing was.
