My Lost Horse

My Lost Horse

Has anyone seen my horse?

he ran off to the city

and now I think he may have gotten lost

I went searching all the places

that we often used to ride

up the valley down the meadow

how I miss his graceful stride

I will turn the world over

for my missing Appaloosa

all day long my joy did prosper

now I'm down--and often slumber

with my heart so dark and lonely

beating for my lost horse only;

he means everything to me

at night I sit in contemplation

of what I must have said or done

though I reason and I reason

I find nothing, I've done wrong

I was supportive, understanding

never cross or fault finding

I wish I really knew what got him running

I'll do anything to get back on him

This poem of grief and loss

hidden amongst the bosomsย 

and the breasts; its understatedness

worked for me; Chris how is thisย 

horse now?ย 

best wishes from Jai:)

hey sparrowsongย thanks for yourย cool comment, and let me put this delicately; may 30 % ย of all poems I post are about me directly; that is not my thing, that to me is simply aย diary entry; which could still be good poetry; depends....horses are great, and in this made up tragic tale, a fair maiden has lost hers...I was in the mood to create a little light hearted fun....cheers, palย

lol, sister Cherie, glad you enjoyed, it's a holiday weekend in Canada, and Chris is too well rested for his own good; bare- back riding and I'm about ready to crack open some cool ones, the weather is perfect the sky is blue, and I'm done working for the day, glad you enjoyed my very different write; best compliment ever....cheers and I hope you are enjoying the dayย

jai, word is horse and rider are reunited and doing just fine....look at the image, see how relieved she is, the horse looks a little worn out, but perhaps a good rub down will make him feel better, lol....jai, I need a beer, and some micro bikini poetry to read, lol.... cheersย
