Equus Beauty and grace as he proudly dances, With arched black neck he powerfully prances. Nothing can compare with this enchanting beast As on his magnificence my eyes will feast.
Mane like midnight silk so flowing, Eyes black as coal and oh so knowing. The sun blows kisses on his glistening coat On tender sweet grass he seems to float.
Oh he is handsome and he knows You can tell as his alluring presence shows. Such power and strength contained in grace Yet the horse will never be put in his place.
For equus is a spirit wild and free, Never truly tamed you see. Gentle as a lamb and honest right through, Respect the horse and he’ll respect you.
The most beautiful of animals and history’s tool ~ To war, to plough, to mine, to school. To pull along barges and work for kings To me the beauty of equus just sings.

wow Kerry, what a wonderful tribute to Equus,
horses are such majestic creatures, without them man would have never come near as far as he has. The horse in the picture, I believe was once yours? is beautiful and his coat just shines. ooh to live in an era before cars when everyone had horses and had to depend on them for transportation.
beautiful my friend.

Thank you Daniel but no this beautiful stallion was not mine.This is an Arab, my mare was a Fell as I like the heavier breeds for riding. These babies are too highly strung for me lol. Thank you for your comment though, much appreciated, Kerry xx

Horses are quite useful, even ones called Equus, except when they are too much given to conversation. A fine tribute to a worhy beast.
