"Horse Sense" in Verses Tense

"Horse Sense in Verses Tense" by Walt Mason is a compilation of light and funny poems from the early 1900s that looks at human behavior, social customs, and the funny little problems of normal living. Using smart poetry, Mason shows us different personalities and scenes from daily life, thinking about morals, unexpected twists, and what makes us truly happy. The beginning offers many poems that make fun of and praise different sides of how people act and the world around them. For instance, "The Clucking Hen" uses a hen searching for food as a comparison to show how pointless some human efforts can be, while "The Milkman" paints a picture of a hardworking milkman whose efforts are often not appreciated. Every poem gives a special view of life's good and bad times, suggesting important truths that we often miss, and the general feeling is fun but also makes you think, which will grab readers who like humor mixed with sharp observations about people.
