Horse Haiku of the Day, by Jane Polk
Horse life in 17 syllables.
Each morning we release a fresh new horsey haiku (or batch of haikus!) into the Internet ether. Today’s haikus come from reader Jane Polk and her equine muse, Molly.
…
My draft horse loves mash
She slurps it up sloppily
And licks her dish clean
My Belgian Molly
Nickers and stomps for beet pulp
Muzzle slobbery
I now know better
Then to stand between my draft
And her mash. Good lord!
My draft horse makes sport
Of colliding with jumps.
She laughs. I repair.
….
Love it, Jane! Thanks for sharing — Molly sounds like quite the character, and mash-aholic! Before we head out, one more for haiku from all of us here at Horse Nation:
