After a beautifully done, wonderfully, deliciously invigorating and strenuous riding lesson, I have written a poem dedicated to Shane the peppy little grey Arab that I rode today. Just try imagining the three-beat canter gait in the poem, soon you'll be
Up up, down down, round round we go!
Yum yum, feels good, I like this way,
A staple, I say, like bacon and eggs.
Zoom zoom, run horse! Nothing can catch us
Just us and our freedom- freedom and dust
Happy we sail, you with your tail
Me with my bouncing brown braid
Who cares for the world, I don't, do you?
You with your all-seeing eyes, my love
Hold up your head, you do, you do
So I'll hold up mine, me too, me too.

Freedom and Dust
Three beats, four legs, my my, what legs!Up up, down down, round round we go!
Yum yum, feels good, I like this way,
A staple, I say, like bacon and eggs.
Zoom zoom, run horse! Nothing can catch us
Just us and our freedom- freedom and dust
Happy we sail, you with your tail
Me with my bouncing brown braid
Who cares for the world, I don't, do you?
You with your all-seeing eyes, my love
Hold up your head, you do, you do
So I'll hold up mine, me too, me too.
