The bridge is stretched
of substance sound
and views abound
on either side.
It doesn’t matter
what’s beneath.
Clip-clop hard hooves
across, and ride!
That low down troll
can’t get your goat
unless you’ve brought
such offering.
If you’ve a goat
that’s vulnerable,
perhaps best stay
at home, and pet
that thing.
Goats are sprightly,
jumpy kids! Their human
-sounding bleat is weird!
A baby goat’s adorable -
But grow up, please. Your fool
groan goat is not a thing
you need to fear.
Your goat is big,
and gruff and stuff
CLIP-CLOP, CLIP-CLOP
- hard cloven hooves
on solid planks, with
firm, plain stamp
say quite enough.
And on we move.
