New Arrival Poem by Ima Ryma

Many a foal this horse has had,
And now I am pregnant once more.
I was tired and so I was glad
To lie in hay and take a snore.
My farmer and his wife had gone
To pick up their young grandchild, so
I'd have visitors later on.
Then off to dreamland I did go.
When I woke up, my eye did see
A bundle snuggled 'gainst my neck.
This was somewhat startling to me.
Then the bundle moved - what the heck!

When first I saw this human child,
If this is mine, then this is wild!
