Neighing of the Midnight brumbies Foal and sand At hoof The call of water Brings them in Between crystal and moonlit hills The fire is out Black as Midnights brumbies Neighing down by the water hole Among many An antique camp Dreaming camp Ancient camp The water Brought Them here To lay near The water hole And the neighing Midnight brumbies

Fantastic mood and imagery conveyed, I like this very much! Since childhood I've dreamed of riding with the brumbies. ~Maureen

Hi Maureen. They are a beautiful sight thou they do a lot of damage to the environment. I am conflicted as to whether they should be culled as with so many species going extinct If they can gain a foothold in any environment, why not. Thanks for your thoughts. Kind regards.
