A place for teens to express themselves!

“A Spirit Like Fire” BY Alyssa Caporale October 17, 2007

His hooves pounds the ground

Galloping like lightning.

Ears pinned back on his neck

Rearing, bucking, kicking,

He has spirit like fire.

 

He acts wild when he plays

But he behaves under the bit.

He feels my move on his saddle

He trusts me… just like I trust him,

But still he has a spirit like fire.

 

After our work is done

I let him go free again.

Just like before

But he seems lonely

Then, his friend comes to play

He gallops and his fun,

And his spirit like fire returns.

 

I will be sad to let him go

Even if it is years away.

But when he is gone,

In my heart he will always stay

The horse with a spirit like fire.
