Cabriolet
The day before the other day
I met a horse who shouted, “Nay!
I shall not pull for you that cabriolet!”
He said, “Good Sir, I’m now on strike
Pull your own cart if you like!
Out of my way I’m off to eat some hay!”
Alas I could not figure out
What all his fussing was about
After all it’s just a cabriolet!
With two seats for two to sit
And only two wheels on it
And a hood, just how much could it weigh?
So being a fair and decent sort
I decided then I ought
To take the horse's place just for a bit
And so as a pedestrian
I acted quite equestrian
Which wasn't bad until the horse hopped in it!
“Take me to the race track Sir!”
Said the horse sounding hauteur
To which I said, “Who do you think you are?”
But then I saw to save the day
Another sort of cabriolet
A two seated convertible coupe car
“Hooray” said I, the horse said, “Neigh”
“Let’s ditch this cart from yesterday
And trot off to the races you and me!”
And so although we barely fit
We both drove chomping at the bit
Harnessed in our seat belts happily.
