Horse Throughbred
He was nobility without conceit.
Friendship without envy.
Beauty without vanity.
A willing servant yet no slave.
Threw the last 20 years that I had the
privilage of owning you
you had your fair share of accidents
the time you tried to jump the gate from
a stand still and cut open
your leg side and tore your eye-lids!!!
Or the time you fell in the trailer and cut your leg
and being a cribber and wind-sucker made it
hard to keep weight on you,you kept
clipping your heels so we had to get
special shoes made for you
but in the end you out did them all!!
You reached the grand old age of 31
which I know did and will surprise a lot of people!
Now you can run and play with all your old buddies
DOMINO SHADOW COLEY BLUE PATCHES
and I'm sure by now many others!!!
I wish I could clear those jumps
again and again with you
or go on those long night rides
or the exciting beach rides we used to go on
or even just go down trails.
It hurts soooo bad without you in my life
the sorrow of your absence will never dissappear.
I LOVE YOU with all my heart and more.
Look down here at times because
I'll be looking up at you often.
your other half,
Nicola.
