Awww Love horses Such beautiful art Thank you for sharing :love:
Riding Bareback
Two horses differ they do
Yet the same if one isn`t a dame
Eating drinking playing games
Requiring upkeep so, close the lane
Black, white spotted given names
Only one can I ride bareback holding mane
Feeling inspired , sane
Get on share the sense of freedom I gained
Back to field leaving without trails just wagging their tails
A subtle old timey photography piece Keith! Thanks for letting us muse off of it for this Friendburst Opening Night CPC!

Wow! Ya’ll,sometimes the art in this blog leaves me totally speechless,at least for a while. Let me see what I can come up with.
‘k,here tis.
Two Different Horses….
Two tiny horses,or tiny are they at all?
Two different horses,drinking from the same squall.
Two living horses,one black and one white.
Two different horses,one dark and one light.
What shall happen if we ride them,or tis they that ride us?
Do we really know their difference-or their purpose–in this Rush.
Does one discount the other-in morals,life and creed?
Or does dark bring out the light,and cause Rightousness to Lead?
The questions are unending,the possibilities do ensure–
that we as earth’s inhabitants have our choices…. to endure.
With much wonder,Elfwing

The Beasts of the field
know nothing of bigotry
innocent wisdom.
Not a lot of thought in this little ditty…but I am all about love so here goes…lol
Standing side by side
at the water trough
we share together
and that is enough
No room for envy
No time for fight
Love is the game
And we got it right! 🙂

All The Wild Horses
.
.
All the wild horses
Out on the range
Running in freedom
Where freedom’s not strange.
.
All the wild horses
Their manes in the wind
Knowing not what’s right or wrong
Or called sin.
.
All the wild horses
Through mountains and streams
Run in reality
Like we do in dreams.
.
All the wild horses
The black and the gray
The white and the brown
At the end of the day.
.
All the wild horses
Wherever they roam
Like us, all wild horses
Still need to come home.

HUNG UP LIKE A HORSE
(With Apologies to Mitt Romney)
When Mr. Black Horse met Ms. White Horse,
it changed their lives like night and day.
They had never known such bliss.
They loved to horse around together.
But in the society in which they lived,
In the Horse Latitudes, on the Black Horse Pike,
intercolor relationships did not draw whinnies of approval.
In fact, they were stampeded out of town.
Disconsolate, but still happy together,
they decided to consult Mister Ed, the Psychic Horse.
(No one can talk to a horse, of course.
That is, of course,
unless the horse
is the famous Mister Ed.)
Sure enough, Mister Ed told them a longfaced story.
In fact, he talked until he was a hoarse horse.
He told them of the Magic Racecourse,
of course.
“Race in a race on the Magic Racecourse,”
Mr. Ed said in perfect Horse Latin,
“and if you win, at the end,
drink from the Trough of Trigger.
your fondest wish will come true.”
To make a longfaced story short,
both Mr. Black Horse and Ms. White Horse
ran in a race on the Magic Racecourse,
which was in a clearing in the Unicorn Forest.
Each won, and after they did, they both made a wish,
and they both drank from the Trough of Trigger.
Each became a horse of a different color.
Mr. Black Horse turned white,
Ms. White Horse became black.
“Next time, let’s talk it over first.”
suggested The Equine Formerly Known as Mr. Black Horse.
Ms. Blackened White Horse agreed.
Fortunately, by the time they returned,
times had changed in the Horse Latitudes.
Intercolor relationships were all the rage.
Mr. & Ms. Horse had many offspring
in various shades of gray.
In later years, the proud parents often regaled their children
with the story of the Magic Racecourse and the Trough of Trigger.
A good horse laugh was had by all.

JUST DROPING IN WITH SOME LOVE FOR NOW, IM DUSTED FROM MY DAUGHTERS GRADUATION,, BUT I WILL RETURN LATER WITH A WRITE LOVE AND HUGS INKY
ALL ALONE WITH HER THOUGHTS
All that was left
Was the photo hanging
From the old home place
As she stood lonely
Dressed in black
From head too toe
Not even a chair to sit
They had cleaned
Every where
By the time she had arrived
Poor thing
Didnt even get the see
Are say good bye
To her only living relative
Her long lost
Grand mother of ole
Only the photo
Was all but a bulge
She hadnt seen
Her grand mother for years
And not she wonders
If the photo was real as she had been told
Lost and a lone
She and the photo
That she took from the wall
Was all she had left
And her memorials of ole

🙁
OH I HOPE NOT TOO FOR I KNOW YOU HAVE HAD YOUR HANDS FULL TODAY. (((HUGS)))
I try not to judge
what other people do
because I may not know
what they’re going through.
I could not stay long
So I made a quick write
a tornado was close by
I battened down for the night.
That picture shows two horses
sharing water or feed
a co-operative effort
of meeting a need.
:)…

TREASURED MOMENTS
Sometimes the best thing
and the only thing to do
is to share the moments
so precious and often too few
those times we can share
with the ones that we love,
where no words are required,
where nothing need be said;
simply sharing these times
and treasuring these moments
as I hold them close to my heart,
together once again.

TWINS
Ebony and Ivory
together side by side ~
Opposite as night and day ~
Still two halves
of one whole ~
They supply.
Ebony takes more risks
and dares it all ~
Ivory takes more care ~
Afraid she might fall.
Ebony is cautious ~
To strangers quite cold ~
While Ivory is more trusting ~
Or so I have been told.
As horses go~
they’re not
all that unique ~
Though great beauty
these lovelies both share ~
Indeed what makes them
so different ~
Is how much
for each other
They both seem to care ~
Spending their days
on the farm together ~
Never tiring of
each others company ~
As they frolic amidst the
fields of grass ~
White Ivory and Dark Ebony ~
Stopping only now
and then again ~
At the water trough
and only when ~
Their thirst reminds
then they must drink ~
Two dusty noses dip
quick as a wink ~
Side by side ~
Ebony and Ivory ~
Twin sister horses ~
that compliment each other ~
Perfectly!
**Can horses be twins? I assume so and can they be
white and black and still twins? I hope so.
I’ve taken poetic license and stretched it as far
as I could…forgive me if the facts don’t support
the poem,,,I truly loved the art and I liked that
they were twins…in my head at any rate 🙂 **
The love shared here at the CPC is rooten tooten!!!!!!! Keith love the beauty of your horses…everyone has done some beautiful writes for the first CPC Simple Sunday…..
Just got back from the West visiting family and seeing the sites……so very beautiful our country!!!!!!!
Hope to get into the swing of things in the next week here at the CPC!!!!!!
