"Horseshoe" Sense
She "Galloped" to stardom
Her "Bridle" unbroken
On the day of her speech
No words were spoken
So she "Mounted" the stage
With her long black "Mane"
And her mind drifted back
To her childhood fame
Where "Colt" was the name
Given at birth
But she changed it to "Filly"
To give it more worth
And "Chestnut" lane
Was the street she did live
And "Thoroughbred" County
Was the name she would give
For her very first published
Book of the year
Where a "Stable" of fans
Would flock to just hear
The unspoken words
Of the "Round The Track" writer
Whose "Saddle" of poems
Would eventually knight her
