Wild Horses

Wild horses gallop over the fermented 

lands of the Okanagan
 
in southern

British Columbia- 

toward the mountains-

toward the Pacific ocean-

It’s a living flight of beauty-

a stampede of  hearts

that pound the land-pulsing-

And at the end of the trail

in the ocean rain-

the necks of the horses rise 

up like towers of pride

establishing(in the thunder

with their hierarchy-

the order of the wilds-California Blue
