A Horsey Type Grin

Have you ever seen a horsey grin They've got humongous amounts of teeth Their dentist bill must be atrocious It's almost beyond belief Whenever they get a toothache They feel it right down to their hoofs You can hear their screams over in China They just about hit the roof Really feel sorry for these equine types They're usually such amiable sorts They never complain if you're 300 pounds They're such amazing good sports Named him “Toothy”, this friend of mine Tell him, “Brush those dentures real good!” The cost of a plate of false teeth for horsies Is astronomical in all likelihood © Jack Ellison 2013

Way to lighten the mood again. I think you could probably write a good poem over any subject. Nice work again Jack.

I had horses when my Hubby was dating me... One complained when he got on and brushed him off on a tree... Then my Hubby jumped on over from behind... The horse deliberately moved... OWWW! They were both complaining before they were thru... I married him any way... Then he stopped riding... Wonder why?
