Ivy Schex Poems

I asked my Lord
Who are you?
He said in a loud voice
I Am that I Am
...

Silent it mutters
Voiceless it utters
Lonely it cries
Wingless it flies
...

A sun so bright
A sky so cloudless and clear
Moon and stars
All speak of a creator to fear
...

Their manes are a wintry white
Frosted with the glittering snow
There backs are dappled light
And shimmer with a frozen glow
...

A flower opens
Its petals spread
...

Head up, neck outstretched
Reaching for the winking star
The horse glides over the snow
And the call is echoed over far
...

Oh, the glory of the charge!
Man and horse to battle
Never an army too large
To stand in their way
...

I am very still
But not the world around me

This land quivers,
...

In the shadows of the evening
Against the cloud-streaked sky
The geese glide above the trees.
Between the darkening hills,
...

He leaps and bounds
Like none other
Full of splendor and grace
No other will achieve
...
