Gent Morse and His Horse

With bent torso, fenced horse Corso, Tows corpulent gent Morse into a Kent forest. This portly source torments tense Corso to such a contentious extent That he sends them off course with vehement force to show his discontent. “Whoa”, vents the incensed Morse With voice tense and hoarse from onerous discourse. “Endorse a gentle course, And dissent from one so dense and coarse.” With sore torso resentment, Corso forewent his horse-sense and sent Enormous Morse into a torrential watercourse from Trent. “You senseless, offensive, violent horse,” Chorused the tortured, drenched Morse. Yet, Morse lamented and swore to descent his portly content, As soon as Corso implements his chores back in Kent. And to mend his sores From his hell-bent horse, Reinvented Morse reinforced his orders By tensing the cords toward extensive fence borders. With a consenting snort for repented gent Morse, The contented horse, relented pretenses and wended a short decent course. For Sheri's couplet contest

David, wonderful tale in this poem. Your alliteration augmented this poem, but occasionally the reader trips on it, sometimes less is more, lol. Congratulations on your win, thanks for entering my contest.
