A bored pony came to the rescue of a coconut piano floating on the sea. Christmas night was near, and the lighthouse illuminated the pony sat in front of the piano, starting the concert that would last until midnight’s eve.
Murray Clarke:
Bored, Burlington Bertie from Bow was reposed on a coconut mat he’d rescued from a skip. He sat up. “Cor blimey, Guv!” he said. “Take a butcher’s at that old piano! Got to be worth a pony of anyone’s money.”
The piano player owned a pony that he received from the local rescue group. The pony was often bored, but could be satisfied with a coconut massage. The piano player developed a Pina Colada drinking problem.
I was bored, super silly, and I needed a way to rescue myself from boredom. I could play the grand piano at my grandmother’s, I could throw coconuts with my brother, or ride the world’s smallest pony at the circus.
Bored stiff, I decided to ride my pony. Little did I know that he would take fright and gallop off into the night before gate crashing a piano concert, they thought his hooves were the sound of coconuts! Rescue me!
Linking People 2003:
Bored in an old-fashioned village, Sony noticed a lonely pony munching on coconut under cow shed! Suddenly, someone requested for music! Curious Sony quickly rushed into nearby barn, finding a piano, played a harmonious melody, to rescue everyone from boredom!
Pony: ‘I’m so bored, and sick of being sat on! Life’s no merry-go-round for me. And that blaring organ music; give me a piano any day.
At least I’m not a coconut, having balls thrown at me all day long….’
The Hawaiian themed recital was not going well. Ms. Pony decided it was time to kick it up a notch. Nodding to the piano player, she danced onto the stage wearing a hula skirt and a coconut shell bikini top.
In the serenity of coconut trees apart from my bored lifestyle I got a chance to explore some new experiences of riding a pony, over the overcast conditions of the seashore side where light dwelling into twilight with people around enjoying there ever into karaoke groups with melodic piano tunes. Such a wonderful and pleasant day out there.
