Description of Equus (A poem for horse lovers)

Submitted by Clare Marie on Fri, 03/14/2008 - 17:07

His eyes are like mystical legends:
What stories they could tell.

Strands of silk is his flowing mane;
It rises and falls like waves.

Graceful is his body, and yet strong;
Majestically does he walk.

His streaming tail is like a flag;
Proudly he carries it.

Like flint upon steel are his hooves:
When he runs, fire flashes.

Powerful is his wild trumpet call;
His neigh, a thunderclap.

He travels on the wings of the wind;
The pace he chooses is swift.

My endurance is great, brave is my heart.
Who am I? I am the horse.

So great, describes the horse very well! Except my horse's neigh sounds more like a little girl's scream. Mind you that he's a gelding, lol.
