The hero of many a Melbourne Cup Day
An ailing Bart Cummings on a hospital bed lay
The Cups King his nickname which does say it all
His will be a name for historians to recall
As a trainer of thoroughbreds Australia's number one
So many group races the great man has won
His number of big winners an amazing feat
His record may never be equalled or beat
Humble in his achievements he does seem that way
And an amazing Australian of him one can say
On his eighty second year and not feeling well
The years on us all do eventually tell
His health in decline that is not a good thing
One can only hope that this will not be his last Spring.
