The Horse
The Horse.
A horse gives joy to everyone,
By those that ride them just for fun.
There are others that race them, a quarter mile,
and those that do it Kentucky style.
We also see them trot and pace,
and teams with wagons, that love to race.
They are also quick to run a steer,
and buck a cowboy without any fear.
We see them jump a fence and wall,
and play the sport of Polo, with a mallet and ball.
Their elegance and rhythm we admire,
with a magical movement, they inspire.
They will control an unruly crowd,
that often becomes offensive, and very loud.
They are also used for ceremonial events, to honor Dignitaries past and present,
they are more than a sport for Kings, but are a challenge for others, to achieve many things.
