My Special Horse She was a little fjording horse not much bigger than a pony. And she liked human company and she had a soft spot for me who was lad no more than ten at the time. When she was out grazing in the long hazy spring evening, she came up to the fence and I could mount her and ride ******* through the evening, only she continued grazing she only wanted me to sit there and talk softly about the great things I was going to do when the sceptre of youth was handed to me. She- dokka her name- never had a foal, perhaps she saw me as the substitute. A child is powerless, and my horse was sold to a horse dealer, the farmer bought a tractor it was blue and noisy and often broke down that was because the farmer didn’t understand the working of the gears and he lamented selling the horse. the best of time we see when looking back and I know now the best of time was sitting on the horseback dreaming.
