By a Nose

Twenty horses in the race,

The winner by a nose.

The Derby sometimes mimics life,

For that’s the way it goes.


At times we might get beaten by

A rival for a house

Or job or placement for a school

Or even for a spouse.


Yet there are times that we may be

The nose that comes in first.

It’s always unpredictable 

And cannot be reversed.


So kudos to the winning horse

And jockey in the race,

For maybe in a future run,

They will not even place.
