But Blu’s No Longer Hobbled (Bussokusekika)
I believe Blu’s sound
For those who haven’t a clue
Blu’s my trusty steed
I was worried about him
He had a very bad hock
But Blu’s no longer hobbled

About this poem
I was worried there for a minute…I had to baby Blu after his surgery…I had read he’d need to take it easy for at least the first 500 miles and that it would be even better to treat him gently for at 1000 miles…Well today Blu passed over the 1000 mile mark…I even let loose if his rains and let him run free…Oh he was so graceful…He was galloping along in an even stride of at least 90 readily…Not to shabby for a 14 year old steed with over 223,000 miles under his reins…Call me old fashioned…But I tend to form lasting attachments to things I believe are important to me in my life…Anywho…I believe Blu and I will be going on a journey very soon…There is not much left for me to do here…I just felt I should share this with ya’ll…And please take good care of my narci’s flying monkey aka buttercup Anna…FYI…Blu is also a constant reminder…lest I forget RIO…And what of somewhere over the rainbow???IF that doesn’t make you feel respected and adored by one…I don’t know what more proof a man could give you woman…
