The Ride

She rode unsaddled on the mighty horse.
Her hazel hair flew haphazardly and coarse.
They crossed the rippling river, laughing with flair.
They rode to the ranch, her husband waited there.
Yet she needed his love and climbed quickly upstairs.

CayCay Jennings Date: 3/13/2025 8:15:00 AM She said write 5 beautiful lines, not 5 *o*ny lines! I'm just messing with you. The write delivers fun and beautiful imagery in measure. I wish I were her, except I know what those seagulls are going to do. Why do I turn silly every time I leave you a comment? Really, do you know why? Poetry hugs ... CayCay Login to Reply

Evelyn Judy Buehler Date: 3/12/2025 2:48:00 PM I love the striking contrasts of this poem, Victor. The openness and freedom of the wide, wild outdoors, and the sudden calm of the romantic conclusion, is a lovely variance. :) Login to Reply

Tom Woody Date: 3/12/2025 5:50:00 AM Nice mix of the wildness and freedom of riding bareback, then the need to release her excitement through expressions of love. Soupmail Login to Reply
