The Horse Ride

Taking a romantic ride today,

We sat upon the wagon.

Suddenly the horse lifted his tail

And we heard a roaring dragon!

The deafening sound hurt my ears

And the smell burned the hairs in my nose.

My girlfriend sat and glared at me.

Somehow my fault I suppose.

It was my idea to take the ride,

But how was I to know?

It wasn't in my plans;

Didn't know the horse would blow.

A lesson learned for me today.

Although I must confess,

I laughed so hard I nearly cried

As I wiped away the mess.
