The Horse

A beast of great beauty
So fleeting and strong
Friend for a life time
Won’t put a foot wrong
Will run in to battle
Will charge at the foe
Point him where you want
That’s where you’ll go
Get warmth from his body
When nights are so cold
No problems with walking
When you are old
He will be with you
Right to the end
A horse is a companion
As well as a friend
