    A Horse

    less than 1 minute read

    I should like to be a horse,
    So long as it’s a paint, of course.
    Flying riderless across the plain,
    Wind tickling my flowing mane.

    Splashing through shallow river bends,
    Thundering along with all my friends.
    Yes, a horse is what I’d be,
    If the choice were up to me.
