I’ve lived all my life without ever having felt such an immediate connection
I knew that there was a horse in the paddock
his beauty I could see when we drove in
however, my focus was on the man raking the leaves
he was who we had come up the drive to see
when I disembarked from the truck
2 mature and protective great danes came to greet me
although strangers, we all got along
the visit went with ease
when I turned to leave,
for some unknown reason,
it was not to the truck I went
but to the compelling figure at the fence
our eyes met, and I felt a sudden rush of recognition
of what I knew not what,
only that this handsome beast
knew my name and was wanting me closer
we met, we touched, both wanted more
how is it that I’ve never had a desire before to connect with a horse
I didn’t want to go, but I had to leave
will that moment come again,
I don’t know, but the encounter,
the soft muzzle, warm breath and gentle nudge
is etched in my memory
it was a moment REALLY lived….
