The barn was quite noisey
but the trailer was even worse.
It was rocking and rolling
with testosterone verse.

Back and forth, up and down
the volume increased all around
the commotion and locomotion
was nearly unbearable.
Loading the trailer for the show meant
ignoring or threatening to geld everyone.
The voice of the trainer
was heard loud and clear:
"I'll snip you all right now, right here!"

Finally, silence.
It seems as if they may have heard
and even may have understood
exactly what that meant.

Geldings?
We are to become geldings?
OK, we will settle down and behave.

But Princess Sedonna was on board that day
and was heard to whinnie and say

"Can I have my own trailer?"


Yes folks, it's showtime for equis.

To geld, or not to geld. ~ That is the question! ~ and if I were a stallion, I'd opt for "not to geld"! lol

I once witnessed a gelding and I darn near fainted!

Enjoyed your poem!

I have not/wish not to observe that procedure myself, first hand.
Thanks for your reply, EA.
