Mutual Benefit

We’re not a perfect match but that's OK
Shall we be friends and share this cosy space?
We’ll hang around together, eat and play
Although I'm not of noble equine race

Shall we be friends and share this cosy space?
I’ll scratch your back if you will nuzzle mine,
Although I'm not of noble equine race
With give and take we’re sure to get on fine.

I’ll scratch your back if you will nuzzle mine,
We’ll hang around together, eat and play
With give and take we’re sure to get on fine
We’re not a perfect match but that's OK

Wendy, I like the anthropomorphic ramifications of your write: people of very different backgrounds finding common ground and mutual support. Enjoyed your lyrical flow in your seamless pantoum. Congrats! ~ John
