All I feel is the power, The wind on my face As I sit, towered Above this place. I feel the strength Of his muscles as They stretch leg’s length And then once again – as A drunk with his drinking– He pulls the ground Towards him, linking Each stride to howling hound As it calls up ahead. His eagerness proves What this horse was bred For as his speed improves And I find myself Flying, floating, soaring, As one finds oneself When on a horse, exploring.
