who's new haiku

by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed — Read all 584 poems by Cynth'ya Lewis Reed

Even God uses animals in the greedy world of sports to teach us all a lesson; It is not about the winning, but about never quitting

Saturday, May 7, 2005


Poem Artwork


No where close in view,

Churchill Downs foresaw lose

But Giacomo made news

 

From eleventh place,

Rider quicken'd up the pace,

Winner's Circle space



At odds 50 to 1

Final quarter mile; he stung

 Finishing kick? Deal's Done!



Back against the wall?

Keep your focus if you fall,

Victory will call

God uses animals in the greedy world of sports to teach us all a lesson

I think He uses animals to teach us lessons in many arenas - but sadly, we seem to ignore most of them.
