Ode To the Great Wooden Slot Car Derby Race
Earth's golden orb rises o're the new eastern sky,
Where red sandhills and goslings blithely fly.
The secret mist of the morning bids its final adieu,
As a young day spontaneously, begins anew.
A spectacular derby in technicolor array,

Till it knocked the doors of my cabin with sounds i...
