When horses run, they leap, touch down, just to repeat
Like our lives moving, leaping between highs and lows
To aim to delay touch downs is life’s true sorrow
Best to lift others on downs and prompt to complete
Like our lives moving, leaping between highs and lows
When horses run, they leap, touch down, just to repeat

A lovely, wise, flowing-with-the-rhythm-of-running-horses and life itself, briolet, Selma. I love how it functions as a whole, a circle circumscribing a golden truth, “Best to lift others on downs and prompt to complete.” And around this nugget, the words cluster like light in the darkness, in spite of the downs “to leap” forward. What a blessing to read last thing this evening! Thank you.
Beautiful every line. Amazing horse running rythem. Indeed sounded!
Thanks for getting that rhythm Raj. Happy 😊 you read. Xo
Me too, Selma
Your third eye, stellar. Thanks. When seen through your eyes makes me look as if I had it all figured out. (Which I don’t. I merely line words up. Remember the squirrel post? Haha, that’s still me). Thanks for the lovely prompt. Thanks for the encouragement most of all. Blessings on your weekend, Dora. XO
always moving ahead
That’s it. Always moving ahead. And when we can lift others up to keep moving. Xo, Beth
