Filippa and Fred

Filippa loved her bright-eyed horse.
His name was Fred, his mane was coarse.
They galloped back and forth to school.
When shoes got loose, she’d use a tool.

Filippa’s Fred was loyal and fine.
He was sixteen, and she was nine.
Swedish, they both loved life.
She played a flute. He played a fife.

Makes me think of 'My Friend Flicka' - what a cute pair!
