Part 6/6. All our horses are insured for "Public Liability" which means if they cause any injury or damage to another person or persons we are covered up to £2.5 million. You just never know. A Poem by Karen Lugg:
Farouk said
O thank God I made it home,
I’m exhausted never more to roam
Oh no said Apollo what have you done,
You were supposed to be out having fun.
I got lost said Farouk looking very sad
You didn’t lose Tara did you, that would be bad.
Not exactly, we got all the way round
and people said how well I covered the ground
Tell me more said Apollo not believing his ears
How did you get lost, well said Farouk nearly in tears.
We were by the van and I saw these horses trott past,
They were easy to catch, they weren’t very fast.
Tara was changing my bridle you see,
It was easy to get free.
Oh you didn’t run off, what happened next,
Said Apollo looking worried and vexed.
Out onto the road I ran for miles,
A bit like doing speed test trials.
But I got so frightened and lost you see
With all those vehicles coming at me.
My feet were red hot and I started to puff,
I knew that I had had enough.
I couldn’t think straight it was a nightmare,
But suddenly, like magic, Tara was there.
She calmed me down and took such care.
She told me off as we walked back
Said it would be a while before I can hack.
Well said Apollo as head of the herd
I must say what you did was really absurd.
It was a selfish, stupid thing to do,
especially as you don’t wear shoes.
I’m sorry said Farouk looking downcast.
But bloody hell wasn’t I fast.
