Why I Loved Carolyn Devonshires Poem - Midnights Miracle

Horses and nature I have always reveled in; when I read “Midnights Miracle”, I remember feeling so sad in the beginning that this horse could not be found. I was certain that it was gone forever, never to return. I read on feeling for the owners of this beautiful black horse. Elation set in, when I read that she’d had her foal. She was looking for a place to have it safely and found one. Mom and baby were clearly safe; what a happy moment when she was found. Carolyn had written on many subjects here at AP and she’s always been generous with comments and kind. A very talented poet and a wonderful individual, cordial and loving. I was so sad to hear about her passing, but I know that she’s in a better place. Her poetry will live on in our hearts and I know she will in her new life. May she soar to lovely heights of heaven.

Thanks again for contributing. The list is now posted for anyone who wants to read all the many beautiful poems Carolyn wrote. I do believe only two people chose the exact same poem, so that worked out really nice!

Is Carolyn's poem shown here? I am not sure if the first part is your summary or her poem itself. If her poem is not shown, I hope you can put it in the box for us to see or show us the link to it. I am seeing as many of the entries to my contest as early as i can since I will be so busy next weekend when my contest closes. Thanks for participating. I love the tribute you gave to dear Carolyn.
