The Pig Races ...
Some friends took us to the pig races.
I secretly thought to myself, 'Of all the places.'
Surprisingly we had a fun and wonderful time.
Watching all of the competing swine.
I even enjoyed listening to their funny names.
As we watched them line up to begin their games.
I watched as they introduced 'Hammy Faye'.
As they showed them the cookie and they were on their way.
Ole' Hammy Faye was a bit of a cheat.
As she sniffed and snorted and moved her feet.
She was after the cookie at the back gate.
She didn't care about racing just getting the bait.
I laughed so hard as they ran their course.
Who would have known a cookie could create such force?
I'm really glad I went to the pig races.
It turned out to be one of life's better places.

Spinning round and round.
She caught it finally and flipped over
