Give Me Time

A man found the horse of the king but he did not know it was the king’s horse so he kept it. But the king found out, had him arrested was going to kill him for stealing his horse. The man tried to explain and said that he would take his punishment but does the king know that he could teach his horse to talk? So the king thought about it and so decreed that they would give the man a year to make his horse speak. Well, his friends think he is nuts. But the man says, “Well, who knows?  The king may die, I could die, the world may come to an end, or the king might forget.  Who knows? Maybe, just maybe the horse may talk?”
