Horse Sense O Man Ye Have Little

There are horses for the courses, We know, and there are race horses, What we know’s too little, Horse bets on no people, He knows with men all sense ceases! _____________________________ Limericks |12.01.2023| Poet’s note: They say: as a rider, the best compliment you can get is not from your trainer; it is from your horse. This is horse sense. I don’t know if the best compliment a poet can get is from his pen, but wish it were. A horse can advise: ‘Take life’s hurdles in stride. Loosen the reins. Be free spirited. Keep the burrs from under your saddle. Carry your friends when they need a ride. Keep stable, and gallop to greatness’. And as someone said: when in doubt let your horse do the thinking. He has the horse sense, as man you have little.
