Poem to a Horse

You run faster than anyone I know
even if I tried, I wouldn’t be able to catch you

You’re polite and there’s enough magic in you to charm a pack of wolves, or men
same thing

I told you before, you remind me of Jesus
but, I’ll say it again because I don’t think you get it

I know you're noble
somewhere
you go on
and on and on
playing and dancing
racing and prancing
striving for freedom but I know you don’t really want it

I bet you’ve wondered if anyone’s ever written a poem about you
well, now you know.
