An ode to a 2 year old filly about to start her racing career.

IN PRAISE OF A HORSE

 

Oh, Vale of Avoca.
Oh, beauteous steed.
Oh, Vale of Avoca,
The pride of your breed.

Intelligent yet strong.
Your hooves can do no wrong.
Your eye contains a gleam.
A hint of your great dream.

Of races yet run,
and of purses yet won.
Of roses, carnations,
Your place in the Sun!
