taking a breather
a moment to inhale
the air
to see
the sky
smell the ocean on the wind
and
all of a sudden there
are
two stallions
white
and brown
beautiful they are
ridden by young ladies happy free
and the white shakes his mighty head
paws the ground
looks me in the eye
moves my soul
and I am awestruck by his power
might
stature, grace
and his rider laughs pats him gently
and says
oooo you like the pretty lady
and up he goes
pawing the sky
flanks rippling strength
nostrils snort I see you
know my worth
magnificent
she laughing cheekbones high
Indian child
digs in heels and they fly
both horses
galloping the path
hoofs pounding my heart
leaving
a
wake
of clarity
Hi Jo
Came to comment on this the other day, and got side tracked looking up July 27, again. -- This IS picturesque. I was led to it reading Larry's play off of it.
You are Brilliant. Vicky
This is just awesome.. You have captured the Spirits of the horses so beautifully as well as the riders.. Absolutely spellbinding.. Am so glad I stopped in to read this today.. Bravo!!!
Josefina Maria,
I am utterly awed! Sigh...Such sweeping imagery yes, but much more...this piece breathed! It has a life its own lass! This piece which I hope, your proud of, rides as one of the finest I have ever read anywhere! Damnt, I applaud this piece loudly in unashamed boisterous conduct accompanied in wild gesticulation as well! I smile as I say, well done poetess of heart, grand damn piece!
It left me breathess! Yes...I COULD go on and on! I smile in thanks for the read.
Sincerely,
Rodney Evan Bohen
You captured the moment beautifully Josie, what a rare talent you are;-)My best friend
lives in Loomis, next to a horse farm and I so enjoy the horses when I'm there...
