our spoiled pony dogs

dogs have their own porch
these pony dogs are spoiled
we like them this way

Raising Pony Dogs inside a House

they race in and out chasing each other with gusto and vim
oops spoke too soon two dog tails just ran back in
one jumps on the couch, and the other is up there too
they are pony dogs, one weighs 80, the other 122.

They love us to bits, have no idea how strong they are
One jumped to

there he stood

there he stood
as if a dream come true
my little pony

one trick pony

one trick pony

the man was too corpulent to dress in lime green and lemon yellow
yet it was his colored grapefruit vest that identified him with the ponies

sometimes a man does what he must  
there was no carousel 
and only three tired ponies
guided in a well-trodden never-ending path

he called them his three-trick ponies
though there was

giant pony like dogs

Giant pony-like puppy does not take no for an answer
A grizzly is less aggressive; he intentionally steps on my toes
If he gets any bigger, he will outweigh a giant boar

If I try to write, he runs off with my pencil in his mouth
Do I dare paint?
Painting is out. He has devoured many brushes.

He loves the

My Connemara Filly

“Dammit,” he cried
“I’ll never get you clean” 
For what he had seen 
Was nothing but mean

“Come on over, now, here’s your feed” 
As the pony ran over
With a great deal of speed

Her leg limped
Over a hard patch of ground 
That was by no means good 
At least the rest were sound

She was covered in dirt

The Pony

Hi how you doing
I’m doing fine, how about you
I’m okay, well I’m not really
Go on tell me about it, that’s what us ex’s are for.
It’s Joe.
Joe, that’ll be my replacement.
He doesn’t seem to want to do it.
When you say do it, do we mean sex.
Yes, strange isn’t it.
I don’t know, I don’t know Joe.
He’s a

Princely Pony

   On the back of her pony
     the universe lay
   comets and starbursts above
     periwinkles below spreading love
 
   O, princely pinto
     you're all I need
   Gallop the galaxy ~
     mane

Canción del jinete (“Song of the Rider”)
by Federico Garcia Lorca
translation by Michael R. Burch

Cordoba. Distant and lone.
Black pony, big moon,
olives in my saddlebag.
Although my pony knows the way,
I never will reach Cordoba.

High plains, high winds.
Black pony, blood moon.
Death awaits me, watching
from the towers of Cordoba.

Such a long, long way!
Oh my brave pony!
Death awaits

Pink Pony Felt Silly

Pink pony felt silly with all that extra mane so fluffy and big
But her choice was either dye her own mane or wear this wig
She would do anything for her owner, Sarah Leeanna McSwig.
About the rest of these fairgoers she did not give a fig.

The Summer Field

Bees are buzzing in their hives
A pony tail swish, deters the flies
Long grass waves, majestic in the wind
And over the pond the dragonflies skim
This halcyon place you love to be
Brings peace and joy eternally.

Unwanted Pony Ride

It always started with smiles welcome greetings confirming pick up times, to the walk towards the building, into the building into an apartment pretty well lit. The couch to the left, the room straight ahead down the hall. Boy 1 and boy 2's room all the way at the end of that short yet oh

Joe's Pony Show

Calamity Harris,
and old Bumblin Joe.
Tried to run this country,
but are dying in the polls.
Just wasting more money,
to maintain the status quo.
And they wanna raise taxes,
May God bless their souls.
Prices are rising so fast,
to where no one knows.
Soon we will buy gas,
with blood or gold.
Calamity Harris,
and old con man Joe.
Tried to run the country,
Alas, everyone knows.

Nana Papa Pony and Me Edited

Have you ever seen bullfrog green jump across a Lilly pad?
Did you ever see gold moth bathing in a moonshine bath?
Do you watch as teal raindrops bless and baptize the stream?
Will you hear the wood windmill song it sings each spring?

I walk real close to the sandy coast where Nana and I share things
She told
