Youth

Yearling struts its liberty in unstinting energy Oblivious to reserve that shoes a gallop with dullness Unaware of regret's stable and the binaries of age Trotting between indolence and indulgence Hot-blooded youth that knows the sway of vigor in every race, instinctive right out of the gate Acrostic composed May 5/2023

Thank you, Lassad. I wasn't sure if the bridge connection from foal yearling to human youth would carry well. My appreciation for your vote of confidence. Be well. Brian
