Poetry Friday: For Want of a Nail

Oh, Mother Goose. So profound! Happy Poetry Friday!



For Want of a Nail

For want of a nail, the shoe was lost;
For want of the shoe, the horse was lost;
For want of the horse, the rider was lost;
For want of the rider, the battle was lost;
For want of the battle, the kingdom was lost,
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
