There once was a Stallion, who met a Jenny,
As one, rambles to adventures; rainy or sunny!
Jenny hunted, loved penny. Vixen!
Horsy, a Jack, so thanked Hymen,
...
No more all-you-can-eat buffets,
No more forcing smiles.
Wealth disappeared, despair rates skyrocketed,
Worries ebbed and flowed.

To A Forty-Niner
There once was a Stallion, who met a Jenny,
As one, rambles to adventures; rainy or sunny!
Jenny hunted, loved penny. Vixen!
Horsy, a Jack, so thanked Hymen,
For helping him break free. He but lived bony.
