Line Gauthier Poet Quatrain

My Favorite Horse

His mane is long and he is very proud
He neighs and roars and laughs so very loud
Always blissfully joyful as could be
Many funny stories he shares with me

My dear horse loves day and night to prance
Forever asks me won’t you learn to dance
Whenever he decides to come to life
That’s when he asks me to become his wife

I stop I look I laugh and laugh some more
I know we would be happy to the core
Under the setting sun just him and me
But you should know that I am only three

Andrea Dietrich April 17, 2018 at 3:26 PM So charming. It all made sense when I got to the end. I have a similar poem where I am in love with MIghty Mouse. I actually skated over the frozen pond in our woods as a young girl singing my love for Mighty Mouse. I told you I was weird. Line Gauthier April 17, 2018 at 3:36 PM Weird is wonderful, Andrea. Everyone knows normal is boring. Thank you so much for your visit and lovely comment.

Maria Williams March 11, 2018 at 8:10 AM Such a cute quatrain Line. I can imagine the fun she has with the horse. We once had a miniature horse (not a pony) - His father was the smallest miniature in the world. We had a lot of fun with him. Thanks for sharing that..Maria
