Mid-Ride and the Pride
Photo c2009 by Nickers and Ink
No Wrest for the Wicked
The fox-hunting season began,
As horses and hounds swiftly ran -
The boy’s name was Reed,
The pony’s Stampede.
Grandfather held on with one hand.
Herein they began a quick trip,
As mini attempted to flip.
The little one wailed,
But honor prevailed,
As Senior lost not his strong grip.
