A Counting Rhyme for Toes



Shoe the colt, shoe the colt,
Shoe the wild mare.
Put a sack on her back, see if she’ll bear.
If she’ll bear, we’ll give her some grains.
If she won’t bear, we’ll dash out her brains.

(a rhyme for counting on toes)
-Popular Rhymes and Nursery Tales, 1849

added bonus: the names of the many parts of a horse

WTF?

LOL, you have to wonder I guess. I am glad that one was gone by the time I came around. That would have given me nightmares!
