Jill Spitz Poet Free verse

Freedom

I look at his face,
I see love.
I look at his legs,
I see him running.
I look at his mane and tail,
I see it blowing in the wind.
I look at his back,
I see no human.
I look at his ears,
I see them hearing my every word.
I look at him rear,
I see his hooves raking the clouds.
I look at his muzzle,
I see him let out a battle cry.
I look into his eyes,
I see him fighting his battle to freedom.
I see him win,
because no one can take away his freedom,
for he is the heart of his world.

Leo Larry Amadore December 23, 2011 at 5:53 AM Your tribute to equine nobility is, perhaps, a "horse of a different color" and is sure to elicit comments from animal lovers in general. You have painted a compelling picture.

Kim Jones December 22, 2011 at 6:36 PM I can't decide if you are talking about an animal of some sorts or perhaps you are talking about a human being in that manner.
