My neighbor recently bought a horse
Who stays in a fenced place next to my house
He loves for me to talk to him
Softly, talking gently, being quiet as a mouse

If others are making noise and fuss around
He then his distance away keeps
Sometimes he makes quite a fuss
As he kicks and runs, like leaps


Photo By Ethel GG Kent

But when I'm there alone by the fence
Whispering to him, holding in my hand green grass
His gentleness is beautifully displayed
Looking deep in his eyes, I see no sass

Every day he seems to trust me more
As I stand by the fence to him talking
Now when he sees me come outside
To me he RUNS to the fence, instead of walking
