Whispers on the Wind

Write a poem or short story that could have this as the title.

The Penny Thieves

A man and his hare

Two of a pair


Would ride round’ the world western


Sunsets and sunrise

One horse and one guy


Became the plight of wealthy investors


They would kick up some dust

Leave in a rush


Tossing trails

In pennys a plenty


Well, they stole so much


They would open a hole

Cause the steed was getting older


And the bag was too heavy


Now,

The levy is this,


The kicker is that

The tale couldn’t last forever


Because the duo of legend

After many a peril


Would uncover the final endevour


But before that I must say,


It wasn’t always this


Maybe, it was just started in adventure


A young man and his horse

New nothing better

And had to take up the venture


For the man was abandoned

At an unfortunate age


And his family

Left him a mare


So, before they were threatened

By bandits and ghouls


They decided to scare

Or be scared


So they hit em where it hurts

And left the pain in the dirt


Replaced it with money

And yeah, it went too far


But the penny trail thieves

A family before team


Knew nothing else

And to them, it was the dream.


But alas, it is over,


The trial marked an X


The young man was caught


And they screamed for his neck.


But the horse

He could sense this sencelessness

Since he could scent

Where the cent man was sent


But he was held in captivity

And could do no such activity

To help the only man with a proclivity

To his family


But to much to his suprise,

The man surmised one last guise


He said he would lead the village

To the sum of his last heist


So his horse and him rode again, but

This time watched from front to back


Led the village to their base

And watched as they would all react


Because where they expected riches

They found a giant hole


And had the realization that this

Is where the spoils


All the the gold

Silver

Copper

Bronze


Would all turn old.


So the village asked the man and horse


Why they cared so much to steal


And the man and horse


Replied


“Because this story isn’t real”


**_But sometimes the wind whispers

Because the wind is also silly

And even can hear laughs

In the bellowed smoke of chimneys

_**
