Into the Saddle
I stick my foot
into the stirrup,
swing
my other leg up,
and I’m
in the saddle.
I gather up
the reins
and off we go!
I look between
the horse’s
dark brown ears
in front of me.
The movement
of the horse
beneath me
and the power
I know she contains.
I cling to her neck
knowing that
if I don’t,
I won’t stay
in the saddle.
Her hair is rough,
but yet soft
at the same time.
The sound
of hoofbeats,
is deafening,
and the dirt
in my mouth
is disgusting.
The horse’s
breathing
is scratchy,
and I know
she is tiring.
The salty sweat,
that has been
dripping off
my face,
is starting
to find its
way into
my mouth.
The warm
summer breeze
is a nice change
from the
burning sun,
as we run
away from
all the troubles
of the world
together.
