Chinquapin Second Week January

Romance of Chinquapin

Oh, Chinquapin
I miss you so
This first January
Without your trial

How I loved your trial
Riding your courses
Laid out by Fred Arant Jr.
In 1969

Following your ridges
Watching distant all-age dogs
Hearing handler’s chants
Scouts calling “Point”

Rising at dawn
At the Big House
Hearing coveys leave the roost
Whistling to their fellow quail
