Mr. E. Quine is feeling his muse, but only in his own tent! Ha. But he has taken the stage again with this special vers de societe as three very special horses make their way to the Wandering Barnyard Show. So pull up your chair and take note, Mr. E. Quine is taking bets now on who will win the Triple Crown.
This e-poem is being sponsored by Uncle Bubba's Hoofprint Whiskey, "Stomping down livers since 1909."
He gallops, she gallops, they gallop all three,
Big Brown, Wimpys Little Chic, and High Brow CD.
They gallop to riches, to fame, and renown,
As each keeps the pace to his own Triple Crown.
So I’ll play the prophet, be your Delphic source,
For three is a number of magical force.
Despite a cracked hoof, an unbeaten bay
Will enter the park of the Belmont race day.
Desormeaux and Big Brown, with little concern,
Will burst like a gunshot in that final turn.
Along with applause and a million-plus check,
He’ll have white carnations draped over his neck.
Now Flarida pilots Wimpys Little Chic.
The queen of the reiners, this mare’s no goldbrick.
She nails her maneuvers, she turns in a blur,
The difficult lead change looks easy to her.
She’ll then drop her head as if bowing to go;
You’ll win if you bet on that blond palomino.
The Derby in Texas is cutting’s third treat,
And High Brow CD is just too hard to beat.
Now Shepard may lighten the bridle and bit
To free up this horse; any cow he’ll outwit.
A drop of his haunches, a heave of his flank,
The stallion will go down as one of first rank.
