Maverick

Under the lemon tinted morning sun
out in the fields of freedom
Dances the maverick
effortlessly perfecting her cantor
Running unbridled
without burden on her back
No saddle to seat a rider
Her only reins are her dreams
grazing on the passion inside her
She is free for the moment
and in this moment she runs wild
Wild and unrepaired
You'll never fix what can't be broken

This is beautiful. I came here because I saw you on the top of the pile and noticed you are from Alb? I work in Rio Rat Hole and reside in Bernalillo. Nice to see someone else here from the wild west.
And the name Keely...I have Keeley's in my family.
Anyway. You'll never fix what can't be broken. Awesome line.

this reminds me of "electric horseman" and at the end when redford let the horse go into the mountain pasture...away from it all to be free.

magic in these words.

Love the metaphors & the message here, don't try to fix me...good one Keely!

Not if you don't try : ) I was lost in the tall grass and heavy winds built in the breath by these hooves. I believe I know that "lemon tilted " sun where everything dawns on you that anything beneath of IT is suddenly beyond the chains of impossibility and all you can do is bow to that moment so thirsty from the first feel of dew and just let go. What a run it becomes when you have nothing between you and your will; filling those legs of young lungs. Filling them with a day that will last you a lifetime. This is what I meant when I was thirteen. Whole other story but very unnecessary to my point...WE all have thirteens. Thank you for this memory~

Freedom is a tricky thing. I like.

[Astro]

Interesting poem, with a nice 'running free' equestrian metaphor. I liked the opening it really sets the mood and gives an idea of the character of your writing.

[Ency Bearis]

Impressive poem well narrated and penned.

[End.]

Running free! This is beautiful, KeelyJane. I don't ever want anyone to break her. Lovely images here. Angi~

This is high up on my list of Keely favourites...I love the lemon tint of the morning sun, and can practically feel the whoosh of the unbridled maverick passing me by...great work my friend.
