TALLY HO



So there was a horse
behind your wardrobe and now
it has disappeared

Is Blondel hiding
in your wardrobe with Richard
le coeur du lion?

Richard the 3rd said
"My kingdom for a horse" bet
he regrets it now

Blondel hates horses
he would rather play the lute
for court sycophants

I have never liked
horses in the house it is
not acceptable

Richard has never liked
horses in the house either
he is civilised

What kind of people
keep horses behind wardrobes
strange ones that's for sure

    Clothes horse over the bath ..ha, clever ms chili...this is actually a hobby horse that I bought as a gift for Christmas.If you squeeze its ears it neighs. I'm reluctant to give it away:) My place is covered with reminder notes to myself especially at this time of year. I suppose I could always use a daily diary like normal peope.:)

  4. If I knew where you lived I would send you one for Christmas.Although it might scare your neighbours...the sight of you prancing around the garden on a hobby horse at your age:)
    Merry Christmas and a Happy New year to you Ms Chili!
