These apples and carrots and oats
I bring for my ponies and goats
and weave a fine Celtic refrain
based on fruits that I harvest and grain.
The dress that I wear's always green,
abundant and verdant as spring.
I sit on a chair by the sea -
Epona, the Romans called me.

Love your choice of avator, Epona. It's just a really enjoyable write, very upbeat and such appealing figure. We need someone like her around.
Good luck with it.
