Spectacular
Sweet and wonderful the memories of childhood,
Painful, oh staggering to recall, Raddle-Dazzle, I would forget- if I could.
Endless, endless the days we spent riding in the magnificent wild,
Calm and peaceful your nature with this young dreamy child.
Tangled were those fantastic woods where we rode each day,
Adored and loved, I never wanted you to go away.
Carefree spirits, me and you, we were daredevils seeking thrills,
Utopia for us was riding over the highest, farthest, most splendid hills.
Labyrinthine trees- rippling streams- a breathtaking leap,
And aching, aching is my heart, I thought I had you to keep,
Raw, the death of my sensational, amazing horse, that I still weep.
