“Animals are such agreeable friends—they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.” ~ George Eliot

My essence seeks solace

In dappled sunlight

In soft snorts

Flowing mane

Graceful step

Loving soul

My friend sees me

As I see him

From the ashes

He and I ascended

Our spirits bonded

Lisa thank you for your visit and sharing your thoughts, its so appreciated. Time spent with horses or dogs is never time wasted.

Who's to say what happens after the lights go out? Perhaps both animal and human consciousness persist in The Great Beyond.

John, thank you for dropping in and sharing. I like to think that anything is possible.

[Re-Pete]

you've got that right. horses (as well as other animals) are magnificent creatures - loyal and emotionally intelligent. nicely said.

Pete, my thoughts exactly. Thank you for reading and sharing.
