Chair presentation

Poem for book

a heartbreak never present
gifted to a loyal rider; a loyal carer; a loyal friend
a bond between a horse and his man
a pure and lucid love

the smell of leather and sweat thick
a destination to ecstasy
fulfilled by any distance traveled
a pure and tenacious love

gait matched by heartbeat
tears don’t belong in the wind
no need to smile
a pure and perpetual love

The sunshine is thick enough to cut with a knife
the rain drinks up the dry
storm clouds are nothing more than beautiful
on his back
a pure and wild love

-Cassidy R. Wilson
