Hrm that made me remember some i wrote when i was at school. Here goes a few:
{ This was about Czar, i posted pics in PG last week }
IN MY EYES
Gleaming hide of fire hue,
Arabian dial so proud and true,
Flaxen tresses in banners stream,
Better than horse of my wildest dreams,
Deep obsidian eyes so gentle and calm,
Tell you that he would never harm,
Yet his crown and tail amid the clouds,
Show that he is noble and proud,
He tries his best but he can't jump high,
By no means does he seem to fly,
He dislikes water and hates the hose,
He gets sunburnt 'coz he's got a pink nose,
But despite others who call these faults,
Because he never bucks or bolts,
I love him more than words can say,
In my eyes he's perfect in every way.
Ok re-typing it, it sounds a bit childish But it won a contest and got put in a book apparently, i even got invited to Florida for some kind of prize but obviously couldn't afford plane tickets. Was probably some kind of con anyway lol.
I've another quite silly one about a mare i looked after too, slightly more sophisticated than the last but not by much. Also my fave i wrote was for a friend when her mare died but its a bit emotional so won't put it up unless anyone wants to see it. let me know if you do
its not good compared to dont cry for the horses i was only about 15/16
Those Big Meadows In The Sky
Dreams are made reality
Harsh pasts a distant memory
Good times, few or many
Fill the heads of those around me
Dear companions remain close in our hearts
But suddenly there seems no evil
Easy realisation I've finished my part
In the world left behind me forever
This new home lay out before me
Meadows green, crystal lakes, much more
Everything our hearts have ever desired
And things only dreamt of before
Here my stride reaches smooth and swift,
In glee i gallop amongst the others
Legs no longer straining for weight to shift
Youth is returned to all here
Warm Zephyr toys with flowing manes
Legs brushed by the sweetest grass
Of the vastest, lushest plains
As flowers and beauty bloom all about
Much missed are friends left behind on Earth
But gentle reassuring knowledge remains
One day, not too distant now
I'll be reunited with them once again
( For Bee)
Also i was looking for one called 'the herd' or something but i can only find ones about cows lol!
