Re: Old Bill
Good on you Bob that is a ripper -a heartfelt tribute. Thought you were writing about our old Bill at first
because you had ticked all the boxes
(Sorry Bill the devil made me think it
)
Enjoyed the read Bob - I love Horse poems - this reminded me of Slims song about the Baldy Bay which is a favourite of mine.
Cheers
Maureen

Re: Old Bill
Lovely, really lovely Bob. I got a real sense of what a good mate the old horse was. Very touching,

Re: Old Bill
As you can see by my previous poems I do not write much serious stuff but when I do it is about the things that matter. Lost a little dog last year who was 15 years old and will post a poem when I get it finished.
Thank you all for the positive comments.
Cheers Bob

Re: Old Bill
Good one Bob. Good to see you have a soft side! My old horse is showing his age now and it makes me sad.
He earned his retirement and deserves a few easy years just eating and swishing flies.
