Horses

a picture in my mind, a thrill in my jeart...

I'm thinking of Horses

                                                         from memory                    

I can hear them talking 

                                                         quietly

against the early light of dawn                                   

                                                         silhouetted 

milling and moving together 

                                                         effortlessly

their body and spirit

                                                          carry me

I'm thinking of Horses

I like this, I can see a herd of horses running in the fields.

I do enjoy the calmness and serenity this poem has. I can see the horses through your words John. At a ranch up in the Gunnison, every morning the horses come down from the upper pasture to the barn and the lower pastures. Their movement through the ranch is exactly as you describe.

i heard the horses say, 'they shoot people, don't they'
