Short Whinnies Poems

His
Withers quiver
With power from his hooves,
Tough thunder. He whinnies and snorts...
He flies....

One end of a mule is certain to reek
  Its alternative end whinnies and shrieks
    A mule may let go
    So you'd better know
  Which end will just speak ~ and which spreads its cheeks...

such a happy treat
an apple for special friend
equine contentment

warm winter stable
happy whinnies from within
affectionate nudge

spring will soon be here
uplifting sight horse grazing
high spirits prevail

and some say
ready to retire,
he stops
in mid-afternoon,
mounts his throne 

of skids, lets
his legs drip
over the side,
tosses his head,
whinnies and spits.

He puts his noble head in her lap
She touches his horn in disbelief
Her chastity is the only key
To unlock the secret
The girl then awakens in a haze...
