Winter Magic
by Mary Benson
Except from the poetry collection
Blue Mountain Rider by Mary Benson and Hedy Strauss
Come fly away!
On an enchanted sleigh.
Lost and laughing,
In swirling, whirling, winter white.
Merry bells
Ringing,
Singing.
Majestic Morgans
Flashing,
Dashing.
Flowing manes
Unfurling,
Curling.
Puffs of snow
Sifting,
Drifting.
Silent runners
Sliding,
Gliding.
Snowflakes clinging, harnesses jingling.
What joy to be
Running so free
On a magic carpet…are we.
Combining their love of horses and the outdoors, Mary Benson and Hedy Strauss immigrated to the Adirondack Mountains in Upstate New York where they met. Whether it is preserving wild mustang heritage or saving horses from slaughter, both women are passionate advocates for animal welfare. Visit Mary and Hedy at www.bluemountainrider.com
Enjoy the season. We have even more Horse Christmas Poems on Knot-a-Tail.
Especially during this time of year. Greet the world like your horse greets you, as if there is no tomorrow.
