The Battle for the Mares Emeline Faeth Halsted
Smashing teeth and slashing hooves; Over a band twenty mares, two stallions fought. Victory was what they sought; Grass was tread upon and flattened underneath their hooves. The mares stood in a bunch. Watching, waiting; Back and fourth, their ears were twitching; Who would win?
Each stallion fought his best; The bigger and the smaller; The taller and the shorter; Not stopping to rest. The smaller stallion beaten, turned and fled; The winner snorted mockingly. He urged his mares’ forward happily Holding high his head.
