Could You Spare a Nickel Or a Dime?

Could you spare
A nickel or a dime?
I've worked all my life;
A life of overtime.

I've been your loyal
and hard working friend.
So I ask you; 
why should that ever end?

I've done what you've instructed
every single time.
Could you spare 
A nickel or a dime?

I don't complain
about living in or outside.
I've always been here for you
come rain, snow or shine.

A beast of burden
is all you think I am.
I'm more than a tool,
I'm a friend to fellow man.

I've been your friend
so be kind to this old equine.
I still need to eat;
could you spare a nickel or a dime?

:0)
Dedicated to Wildhorse Ranch Rescue in Gilbert, AZ for all you do to represent those beings 
that can't speak for themselves.  :0)  Thank you!
