Fiddle Faddle

Have you heard about cowpoke Clapsaddle? , He rode fer years on his horse astraddle. His legs was badly bowed, And he walked pigeon-toed. Oddly he named his hoss Fiddle Faddle. Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired

You are good at these, Robert. Thanks for seeing my poem. I think I heard something about your life from Carolyn a few weeks ago. Let me find a poem of yours I think she told me about.

Cute one. When I saw Fiddle Faddle I thought about the snack Fiddle Faddle and how good it is to munch on during a movie. Thanks for the visit to my page. I am sorry for your loss I know that you miss Vera and will miss her because she was part of you. Sara

Thank you so much Connie. I appreciate your kind words. As I have said of Vera, She was a saint on earth and now is a saint among saints. Her life can be summed up with: She loved everyone and everyone loved her. Bob

G'day Bob … appears with those bow legs Bob, he'd never catch a greasy pig, although the pigeon toes might trip it up - and; he wouldn't want to be drunk trying to call his horse to him - thanks Bob - Lindsay
