Thirteen Fine Thoroughbreds - Tongue-Twister

Through the forest tear thirteen fine thoroughbreds Fraught with tension they flick their fair heads Thrashing through the thickest thickets fittest first Thundering from forest for the fields they thirst Freed from their flight they finish together Thirteen fine thoroughbreds frolic forever Contest : Twist my Tongue Sponsored by: Nina Parmenter 8th Place

Nick what I really like about yours is that it told a really cool story and was grammatical as well as using alliteration as a good tongue twister does. Congrats in the contest. this was one of my favorites.

Hello, Nick I've read through quite a few poets' examples with no hesitation but you definitely tripped me up 'through the thickest thickets!' Well done!
