The Horse and the Lion

" The Horse and The Lion ... " (From The Solomon Studies Series) (Eccl. 3: 11 / Prov. 6: 6 / Matt. 6: 26, 28, 29) The Horse and The Lion Both Have Beautiful Manes The Horse and The Lion Both Stand Up To Powerful Claims The Horse and The Lion Both Rule Where They Range The Horse and The Lion Both Have Battled On The Plains Tho' One Neighs Shrilly and The Other Roars! One Is A Mighty Hunter / The Other Rides To Wars! Tho' One Has Teeth & Claws, Like Sharp Talons Everyone Bewares The Hooves & Ground of Wild Stallions The Horse and The Lion Both Are Like Muscled, Courage Unchained Yet The Horse, Eats Oats and Hay and Sweet Apples and Grain And One Day, GOD Said ... Lions Will Do The Same Both The Noble Horse & The Pride of Lions GOD Made Them Man's Super Adventure-Trains Written & Copyrighted ©: 1/7/2014 by: MoonBee Canady _________________________________________ Growing up in West Texas (oh yeah, I love horses) ... there was a riding ranch that opened up near my family's home. So, I've ridden horses ever since I was in my early teens. I came to appreciate that the horse is a sensitive, noble and beautiful creature. Hence, I felt I had to state my affinity and admiration for this unique beast, (not just with one poem but two) The horse has been in such close association with man and mankind's history ... So that is why I wrote the posts enumerating the qualities of the magnificent creature that is the horse ... Now, I'm not the greatest equestrian (by any means, but I've got a good seat for riding (lol) And if you do, find yourself on a sunny day, with time on your hands, take a leisurely ride on a horse and you'll be hooked for life (I know I am) (All you Horse-Riders out there, know what I'm talking about, I know) Hope readers enjoy ...
