Riding a Lippizaner Dream.....

As I reach down for my lady fair
and hoist her up she twirls
in mid-air,and gently straddles
my mount with her chin on my chest
and her forehead tucked under my chin
the smell of lavender rushes instantly
with arms wrapped around midsection
I can feel her warm breath on my neck
I can feel her heart pounding on my chest
"Sir Knight,faster please",she pleads
so I gently dig my heels into our mounts side
and we begin to enjoy the rhythm of trotting
both of our hearts now pound with urgency
as I dig my spurs the forelegs lift high
and the hindquarters begin its Lippizan dance
my boots firm in my stirups,my lady 
leans back with her hair now mingling with mane
as i brace her with my arms under hers......
........"such a ride,Sir Knight,we must do this again..."
"it's our dream,fairmaiden,again and again...."
"then let eternal sleep together be forever like this"

Ah-h-h....to dream....and to dance
