HN Holiday Carols: ‘A Few of My Favorite Things’
These are a few of our favorite (horsey) things — what are yours?
Some may not consider this song a true holiday song, but we do. That’s all.
Hoofprints in footing and hearty barn banter
Light floaty trotting and smooth rocking canters
Big soft-eyed geldings all tacked up like kings
These are a few of my favorite things!
Cream-colored ponies and bright mares with moxie
Fresh colts and fillies and steeds that are stocky
A horse that can move as though she had wings
These are a few of my favorite things!
Races with payouts and blue satin sashes
Score cards with bonus and no docked-off slashes
Feelings of pride only hard work can bring
These are a few of my favorite things!
When the ears pin
When the shoe’s thrown
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t feel so bad!
