Mom amd Dad
|
were shocked
|
|
|
that the colt was not where
|
they had left him.
|
|
|
They checked the yard
|
and the shed.
|
|
|
They even called the man
|
who had sold them the colt
|
|
|
to see if it had gone there.
|
The man went out
|
|
|
and checked the stalls
|
but the colt was not in there.
|
|
|

|
to tell them that the colt was missing.

|
that it was one of the oddest calls they got.

|
that no one had seen a small colt.
|
|

|
She had wished for a colt.
|
|
|
Most wishes do not come true,

but this one had.
|
|
|
It is sad to have a wish come true
|
and then bolt!
|
|

She had a pet colt
|
but had not even met it yet.

Beth hung her chin
|
and began to sob.

and wet on her neck.

She sat up
|
and there was her colt!
|
|
|
She hugged him
|
and he licked her hands.

"My colt has come back!"
