Charger Sonnet Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Charger Sonnet



Charger Sonnet

the horses on the pampas are more
friendly than the Russian horses on the steppe
and not as cold.
A Russian horse hates mankind and never expect
preferential treatment and will kick you
if you show leniency thinks you have an agenda.
An Argentinean horse is easier to tame, trained
right it will do the tango.

The Russian horse will kick you if you approach it
from the rear as it doesn’t like surprises.
it will never trust you and it has to be tethered,
yet it is a strong horse if ridden right.
The Argentinean horse will be pleasant and kind,
up to a point because it is so easily led astray for
an extra nose bag of hay.
