Copper Rip
I wrote this about a two years ago for a horse I lost..
A big dark bay,
Sweet big brown liquid eyes,
A nice star to match,
A beautiful Tennesseewalker,
walked right into my heart;
.. ..
Good days and bad days,
We had them all,
But most of them good,
I sat on him bareback,
He knew how much it meant to me;
.. ..
He was there when I cried,
Needed a friend,
On bad and good days,
We had it all;
.. ..
Our days where cut short,
It got colder,
He wouldn't get up
3 days passed and he still wouldn't get up'
The vet came and gave him a shot;
.. ..
Now he's sleeping,
Waiting for me,
All of his friends that really did care,
One day I will be with him,
That will be our best day;
