Feel the Wind

If your horse wants to run, give him the rein You'll not descry his need to feel the speed By holding him back again and again Feel the pulse - perhaps you will feel his need Feel the wind, through his mane and on your face. You may descry the reason that he runs Long gone generations have kept that pace To ward off predators and men with guns So ride on, cowboy, and feel your heart beat Let your Mustang teach the rhythm of the West As miles fly by beneath the pounding feet Trust that he knows the land and he knows best Do not be afraid and do not be shy You must be a man if you would descry 5/15/2017 For poetry contest Descry
