Rock On

The rocking horse with the silken mane

Flared his nostrils with pride.

His glaring eyes sparked with pleasure

As he set off on his wild ride.



His inky tail streamed behind him

Indicating his speed.

Oh, he was a restless stallion

And action was always a need.



A little hand had stroked his head-

That had got him rocking.

There were moors and mountains waiting

And stars, with dreams interlocking.



Away, away o'er field and plain

Rock on, gallop away!

Conquer all the constraints and go

'Til nighttime is turned into day.
