My Molly May

My Molly May I had a little pony I called her Molly May So often I would venture out And feed her bales of hay. So then she’d frolic Kick her heels up high Round and round she would run Looking sweet as she passed by. She’d run until she was worn out Then to the stable she would go I’d bed her down then for the night My love for her each day would grow She was my, cutest Molly may This pony always made my day. 25 September 2014

I received a message requesting that I review your poetry. The selection submitted to review I found enchantingly innocent but with a ring of the great poet William Blake, especially in his poems that had, superficially at least, a nursery rhyme quality. I shall read more of your works. A Happy New Year as well.

This poem brightened my day Vera. The last two weeks have been tough on us all here, a family member dying and funeral. Your poem was a refreshing break, a ray of light into the still lingering gloom. Thanks, giving his inspired write a solid 7..

I bet you had great fun with Molly May! Enjoyed your pony write. My grandfather had a donkey and I was in charge of it....rode it round the farm and it was my best friend. Was so sorry when it had to go for health reasons! Take care. // paul

Hi Paul thank you for the lovely comment, this is pure fiction but I did like writing it, our cousin in Lincolnshire, UK. have a small holding and they have a horse and a Shetland so I think it was that which inspired me to write, take care my friend................Vera...........

Demetrios thank you so much for coming on my page, as you can see I don't write much, I think we all had little pets in our lives, mind you I never had a Pony but we have cousins in UK who have a horse and a Shetland and I got the inspiration from there as I was looking at a photo of her, Wow you have given me a seven, thank you so much, take care my friend..........Vera........
