LOVE GOD, LOVE HORSES!


Sometimes he trots, as if he told the steps
With  gentle  majesty  and modest pride;
Anon he rears upright, curvet and leaps,
As who should say, 'Lo, thus my strength is tried;
    And this I do to captivate the eye
    Of the fair breeder that is standing by.'

Round-hoof'd, short-jointed, fetlocks shag and long,
Broad breast, full eye, small head and nostril wide,
High crest, short ears, straight legs and passing strong,
Thin mane, thick tails, broad buttocks, tender hide:
    Look, what a horse should have he did not lack,
    Save a proud rider on so proud a back.

WOW! That really says every thing about a stally!!!  Don't ya just love 'em??
Got to Gallop,
Birtt
