Horse Galloping
HORSE GALLOPING
A lone horse galloping vibrant on open wide meadow
striking wild thorny bushes, feral grasses
with hard tilted hooves.
It is a saddle horse without any rider.
Glossy skin was shining under dazzling Sun in sizzling noon.
Silky curly brownish mane dancing in hot breeze.
Has it abandoned its rider or in search of its owner?
Driven by irresistible force of inner inertia.
Scorching blazing Sun is ahead, not a pleasant venture.
Bathed in tremendous heat
Yet not losing its proud arrogant posture.
Why is the aristocrat dynamic runner so restless careless?
Yet may not be aimless.
Some ethereal dream mesmerizing the noble animal
to reach Paradise, its goal.
