Horse Buddy Poem by Marilyn Lott

here is something very stately
About the average horse
There is beauty in their structure
And they are very large, of course

Their eyes are warm and soft
They seem to understand
They would purr if they were cats
As I rub them with my hand

They love to nuzzle and touch
You gently with their nose
It’s always very wet
Because they lick it, I suppose

They are people animals for sure
They don’t want to be alone
They need the barnyard close
To their owners ranch-style home

Yes, there is no animal I can think of
Nor one that I would study
More than the tall and sophisticated
Wonderful Horse buddy!
