October Morning
Sep 19, 2021
Swishing tails, and long ribbons of mane along their necks,
Muscles twitch to shoo a fly,
Glossy coats from summer,
Warm, strong scent,
Grooming each other side by side,
Enjoying companionship.
Tails swish-
Ears flick-
Stomp.
Doze on three strong legs while one rests,
Warm sun, cool mornings, lie together at night for safety and warmth.
The trees are cottonwood trees, dressed in their colorful, late-autumn best. They are in the same family as the aspens. :)
I have always felt the strongest bond with horses....
