Foreward Ho - Genre Shorties - Week 14 - 100 words

Four covered wagons 

Each pulled by four strong horses 

In line all four began 

A four weeks journey 

Over four hundred miles 

Four couples had gathered 

To make this wagon train of four 

With four men on watch each 

Four hours at a time 

The four wagons made camp 

The four men hunted for food 

And the four women cooked

Four couples shared companionship 

Four hands of cards dealt 

Four cups of tea for the ladies 

Four jiggers of gin for the men 

Four Banjos strummed  songs 

Four couples rested 

Four refreshed horses harnessed 

Four friends  hit the trail again
