Horses and water

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.
How true that statement seems to me.
Perhaps it wants to snack on sugar cubes.
Maybe a romp with other horses.
Unlikely it wants to pull a cart.
But perhaps race around a track at full gallop.
Yet strange it seems, in the sun and heat,
I'd go for a drink and a swim.
