I was told it would never be so <br />My show lamb beating them all <br />The top female over all <br />Many said her breed wasn’t big enough <br />And the lines not pure enough <br />But I didn’t let it get me <br /> <br />I showed without a care <br />And didn’t have despair. <br />I knew she was good <br />And that’s all I understood <br />And really all that mattered <br />To the two of us <br /> <br />Then one show with all the eyes <br />My own bred ewe <br />stood out as a prize <br />She showed like an angel <br />With the glow in her eyes <br />She won that Grand Ewe Drive <br />And took them all by surprise <br /> <br />I knew she could do it <br />Even though they said she wouldn’t <br />We showed them all <br />What our determination could do <br />We walk away that day <br />Our heads held high <br />And a golden plaque <br />Hung by our side<br /><br />Britney Hogue<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/determination-8/
