Kacey Greenlee Poet Free verse

''Horse Drawn Dreams''

Daddy bought me a filly named ''Champagne Taste''.
Smitten by the thought someday she would race.
Slender,sleek,course mane.
Shaped as elegant as a European statuette.
I trained,coached her every move.
Her strength with age continued to improve.
Thoroughbred beauty,your lifetime of wins.
Memories still remain in our trophy case.
Beloved horse I could never replace.

Andrea Dietrich May 28, 2011 at 4:01 PM It sounds like a true story. You had such a horse? I wish I had one to write about. I have no horse tales to tell!! You did wonderfully with yours! Kacey Greenlee May 28, 2011 at 4:39 PM No,not a true story.But was inspired because I had always dreamed of a horse like the one I described.I know how you feel having not had a real horse.Oh well we have our imaginations...Thanks for the comment Andrea.Sincerely,Kacey
