A Few Minutes of Fame
A Few Minutes of Fame:
~Nicole
Months of hard work and preparation.
Collection, balance, posture
Polishing, grooming, conditioning
Shinning, washing, clipping
All for those few minutes of fame
To be captured in the judge's eye
To be burnt into his memory as a true team
Of horse and rider .

Finding your place on the rail
Watching out of the corner of your eye for the judge to notice you.
Smiling and sitting up straight when his gaze lands on you for those brief seconds
Taking the whole picture in
The line up
Announcing the winners.

Hard work, guts, determination-
GLORY.
