Hero's and old grey mares My hero's have turned from the daring dare To the constance of the old grey mare. From the thrill of a moments glory To the dull of a stable story. From the burst of light of a novas' flare To the ever burning candle there. And with that light the pack on my back Has lightened its load and cleared the track. Gone is the dreary of the weary. And I now can smile upon the leery. I have grown a pair of butterfly wings And fly above the impossible things. I cannot change the rules that are there But I have forgone the worship of dare. I will burn for a while and light the dark And hope that my light will light a spark. I send you my blessings, my love and my care. And pray you the wisdom of the old grey mare. |

"The Old Grey Mare - She ain' what she used to be Ain' what she used to be Ain' what she used to be The Old Grey Mare She ain' what she used to be Many long years ago....." She's wiser now... |
