Clueless
A Poem By Larry and Maryne Langer
I saw a spo

asn’t there, After that I tried and tried,
It wasn’t t asn’t there. But my little brain was fried.
Oh indeed I did despair, Yet another jump was looming,
for that spo hat wasn’t there. Oh my heart, it was just booming.
Should I clench my reins so tight? To make it worst the day was sunny.
Or should I kick with all my might? It made the jump look really funny,
I think I need to make a decision, Which made my horse jump like a bunny.
But what should be my take-off position? My parents should have spent more money!
Oh dear, oh dear
es
, for I did flear, Then I plunged between his ears.
the jump was coming ever near. The ground it looked so very near.
Six strides away or was it seven? “Sit up, sit up!” my ears could hear,
If I died would I go to heaven? I think I just want out of here.
Tears were streaming down my cheek, So what? The spot that wasn’t there!
My mascara was going to streak. Hey! I spent an hour on my hair.
My trainer said that I was weak, And my outfit, it’s very fair,
I got so mad I couldn’t speak. Oh look at that cute boy over there!
Should I lean or should I not? And then I saw the combination.
Should I break down to a trot? I’m headed for an abomination.
My spot sure disappears a lot, Oh dear, oh dear, what should I do?
Maybe my trainer’s not so hot. Should I put in one or two?
As a result my horse did leap,
s
Perhaps my horse kno
?
ws what to do,
from the spot that was so deep. It’s obvious I’ve got no clue?
On the other side of the creep, All these spots I’m supposed to find,
landed in a total heap. Oh my gosh, I feel so blind.
I know the judge did laugh out loud. I’m headed to the in-and-out,
He laughed, he did laugh right out loud. “Slow down,” my trainer begins to shout.
He laughed so hard as did the crowd, How on earth will I find my spot?
I missed the spot and wasn’t proud. Can’t they mark it with a dot?
I told my trainer, “It’s not fair!” I saw a spot that wasn’t there,
For the spot that wasn’t there. It wasn’t there, it wasn’t there.
It disappeared! I don’t know where, My life is over I despair.
POOF! Right into thin air. Say! Isn’t that a mall right there??
