                                     a galloping galaxy

*Knabstrup Horse - Knabstrupper, a Danish breed of spotted horse 
  often used in circuses for their striking coats.

Thanks for this succinct, intriguing write, Maureen. Your poetic instincts and works are outstanding. Peace, Gary P.S. Forgive me for accidentally deleting your feedback for my "Like those still waters"; I'm what one would call technically challenged.
