Round and round, up and down, Houpt the horse pranced through the town, With a hop and a skip, and a cheerful neigh, Houpt proved to be quite the starry display! Everyone cheered as they watched him go, But poor ol' Farmer Joe, oh no, oh no, He couldn't catch Houpt, try as he might, The horse was too fast, oh what a sight! Houpt flipped and hopped, and spun in the air, Leaving everyone in awe and despair, But then came along a clever young lad, With a plan to catch Houpt, oh how rad! He brought a carrot, so big and bright, And Houpt couldn't resist, it was love at first sight, He galloped towards the boy, with all his might, But tripped on his hooves, what a funny sight! Down went Houpt with a thud on the ground, But he quickly bounced back, without a frown, He giggled and pranced, with so much glee, Houpt the horse, as happy as can be! So, if you ever see a horse, so happy and spry, Remember Houpt, the one who could fly, With a houpt here and a houpt there, He's the horse that'll bring you lots of flare!
