Thanks Vic, it's actually a lyric, so still a tad rough ...

I thought it sounded lyrical - can't wait to hear the finished product - is sounds good ( in my head) I hear and the band played Waltzing Matilda

And each stanza is four lines of accentual tetrameter followed by one line of accentual trimeter. 
An heroic yarn.
An heroic yarn.

I watched the program on the war horses the other night - they made a huge contribution and suffered terribly. So sad that most didn't get to go home. Good one Manfred.
