for Ann 




Planet Earth

 

Me and Colt ride out

at a hard gallop
lettin’ ’em have the rein

 

and they find their stride
and know they’ve been let loose
and they take that power and run with it

 

and it’s beyond all else.
I get a strong sensation of bein’ on the earth

and the horses’ hooves pound it

 

and the earth’s pushin’ back
and the wind skims the surface and brushes our faces

and I know that we’re all in it together

 

and at the same time there ain’t nothin’ but me and Colt

and these horses and the earth spinnin’ beneath us.
