Put our saddles in storage
side by side,
polish the dust off
our day ride,
by the look in your eyes,
I take it you've fallen
for me hard.
Caught in the stirrup,
from the kiss, we can't
look back,
all written in horsehair
ink, walk away with
braided memories,
free-reigning lust
loped the sagebrush
range.
Rented me for a day, I
threw in the wildhorses
for free.
Women have come and
gone, bought dreams
here with me for the day,
bunked for the night,
cried for a month.
What is it about
women, wildhorses, and
lust?

Oh.... Just think its great
when somebody takes the time
to look deep into anothers
eyes
It tells a lot about her
mind set, whole stories can
be written about this single
act
Rented, every moment of
time is rented to somebody
or another, through out a
lifetime
She would certainly cry if
bringing her dreams and only
got a single night, with her,
she cried only a month
Women, wildhorses, and lust
their energys live in all of
us
Nice Contessa |

| Ahhh, so now you are for rent? Good write Sage..I like the image of dirty women ohh dusty ..seriously I rode once and the horse knew it and walked right into the middle of a lake and stayed there..I love dthe 3rd stanza even though I joked but not sure I get the third one..why did they cry for a month? I could say that about my foster kids minus the lust of COURSE but I think I may have been the only one crying if they stay for that month.. |

I agree with Jerry Sage! You penned a gem with this one! We all have to ask that question once in awhile,otherwise we get stale from being in a rut...

Great poem and question dear Sage! As is said, always honour the question. The answers often change, but not the question!!
I love this line too:
"...Caught in the stirrup,
from the kiss..." Gorgeous!
Love & Wildhorses Suzie :-D |

| Damn, but you outdid yourself with the wordplay in this one, Sage. I mean, "written in horsehair ink," and "braided memories,/ free-reigning lust," never mind that the poem itself was just fucking good!!! |
