Who knew. . .?

Horse

Buckskin Abby in the rain

Mystic in the sun

Muscles smooth

Ears saying more than I could

With only MY body.

Eyes wide and aware

Empathy and compassion?

It surely felt like it.

Moments of touch

Physical and emotional.

Peace, quiet,

Deep breath contentment.

Who knew a horse would

Make such a difference.
