There are...

...some horses that just don't look the same...
..as other horses, Fjord is the name.
Small and compact, muscles they have plenty,
work or play are equal, small and mighty.

All are dun in color, with a few varying shades,
it's the main that's different, and the way it's laid;
still beautiful to look at, and marvel at the sight,
and watch with wonder, in any kind of light.

The breed hails from Norway, where it works a lot,
and there are plenty from there brought by import,
there are many of them in the USA,
pulling plows or ridden, and every one likes hay.
So, when you see a horse, and it looks like this,
you'll know you are seeing Norway's horsey bliss;
the hooves are light in color, and the hair is just right,
willing and able, these horses are bright.
Photos show the color variation, light, dark or in-between.
