She bites,
She kicks,
and sqeals.
She bucks and lunges,
and is as graceful as a swan,
with a broken leg,
She is a strawberry roan,
that looks covered in mud,
with the appaloosa spots,
just showing on her nose,
And yet I'm drawn to her,
As a moth to something shiny,
and as we ride around the arena together,
you respond to my every need,
as though the paddock you is different,
to the one who moves with me.

I love the imagery in this poem. She sounds like a beautiful horse, even if a bit wild. Great poem!

And she does, she does bite and kick and squeal, and she's afraid of the hose...
But I would stil love to own her.
