My Horse My Kingdom

There comes a time when we know what's right Standing in front of me, right in full sight.

A coat glistening black with fluffy golden ears Eyes so kind that mine immediately sprung tears So perfect he was, in every way I knew that buying him would make my day

There and then, to me his heart he did give

My every mistake he would instantly forgive

Working as one, every request he carried out

Of his ability I never had a single doubt

The bond we had I cannot explain I just know his presence kept me sane

Whether in a stadium winning all the events

Or a trail ride taking us safely to our tents

Herding the cattle was for sure his main game

And his eventing never put me to shame

Where ever we went he made me proud As I would shout, that's MY Quarter Horse out loud.

His days with me I knew they wouldn't last

But for me they sadly went by way too fast

He had become a legend to all whom he met

In his offspring so much of him, for me, he left

I saw in his eyes, as he said goodbye

That forever, in my dreams, we would with wings fly.
