A Catchy Poem

By Neil Davies

When you cannot catch a horse
It's hard to keep your cool
You get so close, he walks away
And makes you feel a fool

Some say each horse must come to you
"Chase him, make him move
Be the boss, don't give up
You've got a point to prove"

Forget the chase, it makes no sense
The problem is his fear
He'd rather keep away from you
He worries when you're near

So keep him in a stable
Go in four times a day
Take some feed and rub his head
Bring carrots, bread and hay

Very soon he'll be your friend
He'll always want you round
And he will catch you anywhere
It never fails I've found
