When we got to the gate this is what we found
the latch was broken, lying on the ground
that was a problem, imagine the scene
although now closed with nothing to be seen
the gate might open if there was a breeze
any cows or sheep could escape with ease
we looked and we found a hay bale lying near,
thinking quick we knew the answer was clear,
a piece of pink string was tied around the bale
we could tie the gate up, that wouldn’t fail
so even if the bale might lose some hay
we knew we had done our good deed for the day
I like it.
I’ve seen farm gates tied with everything imaginable. But when I saw this one tied in pink… had to be a photo

Great poem, and cleverly crafted story of the strange, pink-stringed gate.
