Parading as they
Await their partners, some
Dipping their heads, some
Dragging their grooms
Others relaxed as
Connections look on
Keeping the faith
Minutes to go before the
Off a leg
Up is offered and
Now is the time
To take the reins
Colours aplenty
As each runner
Navigates
Their way as
Easily as possible to
Reach the start
Led up by a handler
One after another
Are locked away as
Destiny waits
Out they thunder
Forward, urgently
Feeling the
Ground
As they
Lengthen and
Lengthen again in
Order to claim the
Prize
Resolute to the
End the
Supreme effort
Undertaken will
Live with many
ThereafterI used to study Shelly, Chesterton, Thomas, Blake, Swift, Montagu and Byron et al extensively. If I’m allowed more than one shot then allow this as my first attempt. An haiku;-
I call it
Horsey
Horsey horsey horse,
Horsey horsey horsey horse,
Horsey horsey horse.If I’m not allowed more than one shot then may my fellow competitors take this as a stark warning for next year.
Also, I think 10/1 is a bit stingy. If there isn’t an official prize then I want a price.
Angry little men with hats
Clutching onto whips
Victor grins at maurice
The winner cashes his chipsTreve wins by 7 lengths
But nobody gives a ****
Tarquins tweets had a list
With no frogs names on itBritanias German granny arrives
in a splendant carriage
The duke by her side
But the wheels abruptly creek to a halt
As he notices a coloured fellow outsideI say old chap you must be lost
I musnt cause a ruckus
But zimbabwe is 4000 miles that way
You may borrow my compassThis fellow is always smiling
Never does he look sad
In a voice as posh as the dukes
He says my name is rishi persadWhisperss elizabeth to phillip angrily
I’ll never bring you here again
That man is not from zimbabwe
Its that trevor mcdonald from news at tenAll the while a middle aged 70 year old woman
Is on a recconaissance mission
To regain the confidence of youth back
Until she is ushered in front of a camera
For gok wan to mock shoes and hatRace and class wars ensue
Assaults commonplace
With high heels and bottles of beer
As chemical grimthorpe with his perma puzzleed exepression
Proclaims theres nothing to see here
These people will improve for the outing
We suspect they will behave 20 pounds better next yearMr Wolf, I was just about to quote that before you deleted it.
Thought it was good.Gaelic Warrior Gold Cup Winner 2026
Rolling about laughing..Mr Wolf that is hilarious.
Got my vote already very clever.

*******
Take the brightest star at night
add a dash of Kryptonite
mix together then infuse
a lightning bolt into his shoesHenry gazed upon the foal
knowing this to be his goal
and hoped that he would live to see
the colt fulfill his Destiny**********
I think he might have been called Horsey
or something like that
JacThings turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...‘Gorgeous’ Gok Wan live at TRF fashion parade
In his giorgio armani
TAPK looks as sharp as a knife

or eyesight‘gorgeous’
Nathan looking dapper

You’re getting to be a real creep lately Nathan
I shall have to have a word…
You’ve put a lot of thought into your poem for the most part though. Well done.
Nothing wrong with a bit of creeping Mr .P
