They came from the East and they came from the West
to show what their horses could do.
They came from the South with some of the best,
The North country was showing some too.
Their horses were good ones, the cream of the crop.
Their were fast ones and fine ones to see,
but the one that was best and always on top
was the mare that I called "Kimberly'.
When you looked for endurance she had what it took,
and start from a stop, she was fast.
For handle and savvy, why she wrote the book
and any horse running she passed.
I've seen some of the good ones and owned quite a few,
Thoroughbreds, Morgans and Grade
but that Quarter horse mare was better for true
wherever her entry was paid.
If horses were trading for gold pound for pound
and I had my druthers to say,
I'd still rather have that bay mare around
than all of the gold that they'd pay. | | © 2007 Hal Ethridge |
