Squint your eyes just a little bit,
Just a little more,
Yes, there you can see it,
One of the cute ones,
Not just a barn with hay and horses,
Place where all the tack is cared for
Where their buckets and bags are
There, the feed is stacked;
Or one of the dark wet barns,
That looks like it came from a century,
Laced with things that no man or
Animal would have to put up with,
To this bright little guy, with his
Crooked toothless smile, his wide set
Eyes seeming to look this way and that
And that baseball cap worn on the
Right side of his head, the bill
Laying flat on the ground, looking
Like the goofy guy he is...everyday
Making, everyday seem the fun day,
That it can be.
