Barbaro
Barbaro, the best
brave beyond belief and soul
heart now laid to rest

Author notes
Barbaro, euthanized 01-29-07, a magnificent horse who's indomitable spirit and heart, in the face of adversity, transcended the difference between man and beast.

a fine tribute to a fine animal.

What a lovely tribute to that beautiful horse. You have described Barbaro so well in your haiku.

It's a shame that barbaro was put down, but think of all the time he spent uncomfortable and in pain...He was a great and indomitable horse who left much to be desired. Many regular horse owners couldn't have taken any horse as far as his owners did, and He dealt with sooooo much during the time that they tried everything...At least now, he isn't in any pain whatsoever...

Masterful...
I have never been able to narrow my wandering mind enough to do a Haiku. You did wonderfully.
Thank you for welcoming me into your world
