A Game of Donkey

A Game of Donkey

It's Christmastime in Matty Googan's pub.

The men are all brothers.

The women in love.

The kids have been sitting on Santy;

all are merry having fun .

The boy finds a ring in his lucky bag

and the grown-ups start playing a game.

They're  making a  ring

around a man and his wife.

She's pretending to be a stubborn donkey

down on all fours and braying.

He's the ass's owner in a hurry,

kicking it in the belly,

and dragging it along by the mane.
