By 4 by 4 by 4 by far -
horse-box, truck and family car
to country show on summers day
good country folk do wend their way.
Country types in bowler hats
with picnic hampers, picnic mats.
For lads with pints of local brew
a bench around the 'ring' will do.
White coated sorts who lead the stock
and that one judge in her new frock
and pounding horses hooves which trample
organic, fresh with lots to sample.
And ferret racing - have a bet!
and mums with screaming kids regret
and burger vans and fish and chips
for extra inches on the hips
And snakes of people wandering back
down along the well-worn track
all light of wallet, happy, tried
with stocks of energy - expired!
