While I was leaving a gas station on the far side of town
this morning I got no response when I said "hi" to a horsey.
It could be that maybe I needed to roll my truck window down,
as horses may not read human lips with ease.
Maybe they understand rural speak better than folks from town,
or it could have been I needed to select a different dialect of Horse-ese.
After I said "bye" a few seconds later to the animal large and brown,
I wondered, was that a horse she or a horse he?

Response from My Nice Niece M: You are a nut!! LOL! In a good way of course!
My Response to My Nice Niece M: Its a true story! Just as I was leaving the Toot N Tote M [CONVENIENCE STORE] there was a horse trailer beside me and I wrote the kinda-almosta-poem rough draft in about 30 seconds when I realized I could form the trifecta semi-homonym-ish (horsey)-(horse he)-(horse-ese). The horse-she was just a bonus. And yes, you can find several humans to agree with you that I have a nut flavoring.
I would tend towards honey roasted cashews, mmm.
