Remembering my horse on what would have been his 31st birthday. 💖 Here are verses I wrote in 2018:
Velvet nose Dark eyes glow Sun burnished coat My childhood friend My heart My home. Thank you for kindness Taught by sloppy kisses, Playful nuzzles, Waiting at the gate. Thank you for understanding: Patience as I try to saddle you Groom you, feed you, untack you. As I nurture you, you nurture me. Thank you for knowledge: A furry sage, a wise teacher Imbuing your lessons of life With gentle eyes, carefree snorts, the perfect flying lead change on command. Your love knows no corral, Your arena is love: Unconditional Soul sustaining, fulfilling. Rest well, beautiful friend: Thank you for seeing me through, Not to the end, but to the beginning of light, a blank slate, a new page to create. Forever friends, death cannot bend. On a new plane of place you await, Healthy, sleek, at peace, for the friend, for the girl, who was who is and will forever be YOUR whole world: and as you were mine. ~LMC
