Her grey mane flowing
Gallops through the night alone
Riderless for now.

Joannak,

Her hoary mane rose
Rhythmically back and forth
With each lonely stride

Good one! Me likes :^)

Moonbeams radiate
When the veiling cloud has past
Playful shadows dance

Thanks, Dennis. I just lost a best friend of mine, I had her for 28 years....I still see her running through the pasture in my mind.

Nicely done, Joannak. A fitting tribute to a good pony. I recall a Lew Sarrett poem about a heaven for horses. Me thinks you know it as well......

Her grey mane "glowing"
Admired by all the angels
In heaven's pasture

On gold she gallops
Heavens breeze through her grey mane
Paused she thinks of you

So sorry for your loss.
Hugs,
Juls
