Sleep, Don't Weep

Sleep, Don't Weep

A blanket of blue and green

A pillow of red and gold

Lay me down in the Earth

My treasure will it hold.

As birds soar, and grass is new

I will lie and wait for you

Do not cry, do not weep

I rest my lover, I am asleep.

Echos on the Plain

Thunder echos across the plain,

Shining, Vibrant,

they're off again!

Flaxen, Chestnut, 

Grey and Black,

Courage and beauty they do not lack.

Chests pounding, nostrils wide

The wild of freedom,

In full stride.

Roaring, Snorting, Crying loud,

Dancing heads,

their tails streaming,

proud.

Racing, Flying

There is no course

Oh! What thrill! What joy!

To be a horse!
