Hats off to @jayna.
Despite having her account hijacked, she's continuing the 50 word challenge. How could you not admire and support that?
This week's 50 word Jayna writing prompt is the word "fence."
I've no idea why, but this will be my third 50 word composition devoted to horses. Go figure.
So close!

Fortuitous Frustration
by Duncan Cary Palmer
Frost makes the early morning grass crunch as I tread the meadow. White breath billows, sparkling in morning sunlight.
My thwarted prize dam is nuzzling the donkey next door through the wires. She slipped her stall in heat, heading for the nearest relief.
Thank God, good neighbors make good fences.
Yet, so far...

P.S. If you have an "in" with anybody at Steemit, Inc. - Would you please ask them to get rid of these damn, extremely annoying "off-website" arrow/boxes? The have, overnight, made Steemit ugly. There are much better solutions.

You are why I'm here on Steemit!
I have very eclectic interests and hope, over time, to write about them all.
Charming! That donkey, though - such an ass!

I haven't understood the story completely, but I can tell it's good one... I hope the word heat doesn't mean what I think... '-'.
Wait... WHAT?!
eyes widen...! sorry I have to go to @jayna now!! I should have heard of this sooner. (Why I always assume everyone is alright when I'm gone?)

Hey bro. I don't get around Steem much these days, but looked you up to see how things were going. Looks like you're still plugging along.
I may write an update about Joogsie soon. She's doing fine, though we watch closely and probably worry too much. :)
Take care.

Joe!
What a happy surprise to hear from you.
I'm so glad to hear that Joogsie is doing well.
Yes, I keep plugging away here... and also have had good news in the last few months, a really good and enjoyable tech gig that, thank Jesus, has put me back on a reasonable financial footing after about a year-long very dry spell.
Thanks for your note, and thank you for your perpetual support!
