The Race!
The Race!
The glistened horses with snorting nostrils came out from the starting gate wildly, on their way!
They mustn’t crash or start to late!
They rushed out behind the steel meshed gate, some with legs pawing, crashing in the air!
For the winning money, the people couldn’t wait to win or loose their purse!
Oh! How the crowd did roar!
The people did shout with Glee!
Yelling so , let’s go, “Fancy Pants”, Let’s go, yelling so happily!
They wanted their special horse to win, for them to win their rewarding day!
The Horses rushed headlong in their special way,
Around the tract to cross the winning line!
Oh what an exciting and glorious day!
Magnificent muscular horses, stretching legs and necks!
On the way to make the people's day!
“Love’s choice“, makes her play, she’s leading the pack all the way!
“Fancy Pants” does his dance and he’s running third today!
Out in the stretch it’s “Hectors Son”, I think he’s won!
No! Out from the pack, way in the back it’s, “Mother’s Choice“, she’s the winners pick of the day!
And here they come, the race is done!
Number One, is “Mother’s Choice”!
“Hectors Son” is number two!
And “Love’s Choice” wins show, just for you!
“ Fancy Pants” hit the fence, out of the race,
Oh! Piety him what a disgrace!
I ripped his ticket right in two!
Hurray! Hurry!
Place your bets for the next horse race of the day!
Pick your winner!
A horse race is like life’s race
I wonder if we will win the race of such a hectic day,
Win first place, place or show?
Every one of us, is in the race of life whether it’s fast or slow!

May the excitement of your race of
today and tomorrow fullfill your
hearts desires!
JimEee
May your greyhounds never catch the rabbit,
so that you and they can dream of tomorrow's race!

Some are in the fast lane and most are in the slow and more are in the slower ones. I believe, that it is not the speed or how long it takes us to travel our specific destinations but how beautiful and meaningful we all go through every aspect of it. The adventure and effort we put out in all our experiences, be in pain, sorrows, glory, happiness and love is all that matters. Let us give our best for life is too short. Way too short at least this is how I feel. Well, twice I have been called and twice I dodged it and I guess this is what makes life feel so valuable.
Thanks for sharing such an evoking write.
