Race Horses
August 25, 2010
Triumph and noble
Beautiful and Graceful
Loyal and Courageous
Their hooves digging into the dirt
Flinging it high in the air
Running in flight
Their hearts beating faster and faster
Their breath becoming quicker
Their riders bouncing up and down
The sun beating on their silks
Faster they run, freedom around the corner
They cling to the rail, chasing each other
Challenging all who try to surpass them
Determination locked in the eyes
Their legs move swift and tails lick the air
Their coats gleaming in the afternoon light
Glistening and gleaming, they shine.
They will never stop
Until they win.
