I'M a Horsie

Oats,carrots and apples too
A new nail for my shoe
Washed and brushed on all my siding
A saddle for daily riding
Pretty braids and "pony" tails
Galloping on scenic trails
Stables with a straw like bed
Conversing with Mr. Ed
Doing tricks and having fun
Bringing joy to everyone
Cowboys, clowns and rodeos
I entertain in lots of shows
Neighing to get your attention
When I need love and affection
Warm and sunny --- snow and rain
Nothing can keep me contained
I like to be free and roam
Far away or near my home
I come in all shapes and sizes
Each one bringing new surprises
To my owners every day
With my silliness and ways
Big or small --- spots or colored
I'm a breed that's like no other
Beautiful and full of action
Bringing so much satisfaction
Whenever I am seen by those
Who like to get really close
Giving me pats of delight
I am a wonderous sight
