A Poem for Horse
POEM FOR HORSES
searched the whole universe and I can never find a creature so humane like you
even the children I have given birth to will someday leave my side but you will stay forever till you gone
even though the time I will spend with you is limited, two to two and half decade or so, it's still worth it
cus I know after you are gone the memories we shared will be forever
and maybe you will bore a son who will carry on your legacy
even when I step on your tail or toes, you just moan and you could never do me harm
no matter how much discomfort I cause you, you still find your way back to me
when I am broke and we have nothing to eat, you never leave and you lay by my side
you motivate me that things will be okay
I am your master but you have taken me to be more of your creator
never met a creature so humble and obedient like you
you bend to my will and make me feel more of a father
my closest friends betrayed me and left me in the storm but you put me on your back and rode me through
you are with me through victory and defeat on the battlefield
everytime I saddle up I know I am safe
I am confident of this because you took an arrow for me when people tried to assassinate me
you the only person I can trust among my trusted peers
we ride to the wild west to claim our treasure
through all the danger you never backed down
when it came for me to choose between you and the treasure, I chose you
you are my treasure
just as John Wick killed a bunch of gangs because of his dog, I will cut down armies, empires and foes if they ever lay a hand on you
a king is never complete without his trusted mare
everytime I touch your chest, your heartbeat resonates with mine
it's like you are my significant other
everytime I saddle up I feel like I can fly
as I mount our souls connect and we communicate
you know when I want you to run, walk, gallop and stop
you know when I need a ride and when I don't
everytime I am feeding you it's like I'm feeding myself
and everytime I hurt you it's like I'm hurting myself
never had this kind of connection and love from people
that's why I would die for you
that's why this took me to animal care
knowing how nature wants to communicate his love and affection towards people that's why he created animals is the reason why me being in the animal care service is the most purposeful thing I have ever done cus I am treating humanity and at the same time experiencing nature's love
in the olden days you were our means of transport
nowadays we only use you for our benefit never giving a care about your health
I like to give you your freedom
I can never use you for money
I will forever be your Woody
