White snow is falling.
The white doves are singing.
The children are playing.
The dog is watching.
With all of these things that are happening,
The horse is only staring
From his lonely pasture.
No friends,
No grass,
No children squealing and playing beside him.
Just staring.
Only staring.
But the cat is daring.
He climbs the fence to the horse's scowling face.
The cat jumps happliy
Upon the staring horse's back
And gives him warmth.
A friend.
The horse no longer scowls.
His ears are now forward,
And his eyes now bright,
Because he has a friend.
There is no more staring,
Only daring.
The children are done squealing,
And the dog is done watching.
But the white snow has not stopped falling.
