Horse Trailer

This is a poem written about one of my best friends who is a horse. His name is Zan.

Following the trailer I just couldn't wait
I opened it up and led him in the gate
It was the first time I saw my friend again
"You've probably been wondering where I've been"

It's been a lonely winter where we began
"I promise I'll see you as much as I can"
I have been waiting for you to come on back
Now you're here, let's back on our same old track

Now that you are here I'll never let you go
But I know you will leave before the first snow
I'll treasure the moments I've had here with you
And I'm hoping that you will treasure them too

I sat there and groomed you all the summer days
We'd look at each other with a friendly gaze
I would feed you apples when I got the chance
We'd walk around the paddock in a slow prance

Sadly, now you are gone you are on your way
Hopefully I will see you another day
And now as i see the horse trailer leaving
I am still standing here and still believing
