Oh Dear, What Can the Matter Be

Oh Dear, what can the matter be Did my horse get stung by a bumblebee He’s gone wild, dancing and kicking When a while ago he was frolicking Carefree and happy as a chickadee Among meadow flowers up to his knee Now his mane and his tail in full swing Stirring up a heck of a wing ding Showing less strategy than a flea To hell with all grace and dignity Submitted on January 30, 2018 for contest OH DEAR, WHAT CAN THE MATTER BE sponsored by BARRY STEBBINGS - RANKED 8TH

Excellent romp. Glad I don't have ride that buckin' bronc!! You are really racking up the wins, my friend! How much are you charging for autographs now? Can I get yours before I'm priced out of the market?...All the best, Gershon

You are too funny, Gershon. You've got numerous other autographs to claim before mine tops your list. You are quite the charmer though...LOL

Love it. Reminds me of the spring colts frolicking through the bluebonnets here in Texas.
