Graphic by Billie

A TRIBUTE TO THE HORSE

I am honoured by your majesty,
Yet humbled by your grace,
Yours is a world of service,
Masked by a gentle face.

Your strength is undisputed,
You have the power to kill,
but never would you knowingly harm,
Naturally it is not your will.

You carry us to dizzying heights,
With the willingness of a child,
And the innocence of an angel,
Hard to imagine you came from the wild.

You show the purest love,
Even when life for you is hard,
As humans we often spoil the pure,
Our priorities generally marred.

You can be whipped, kicked and hounded
, Yet one can never see a tear,
But we can see it in your spirit,
And your eyes they show your fear.

I can never take for granted,
The gifts you give so free,
So simple yet so intricate,
You ask nothing from the world you see.

To get you to serve your fullest,
We must never hurt or force,
The creature who has won our hearts,
That my friend is you the horse.

~ Debbie Louise Fleet ~

Happy WFWednesday, Billie.

It seems that FR was down again yesterday morning. Grrrrrr
I could not get on FR before I had to leave for the day.
When I got home, I was ready for my nap. LOL

Your Opening was beautiful. I love that rose! Thank you.

It was so good to see another of your originals at Amy's.
I hope you are able to resolve your computer troubles.
It seems that I need to reboot more often than I did a few months ago.

I register Marissa at her new school next week.
I will not get as involved with the new PTA as I was with the one last year.
I'm planning to let someone much younger take my part. :)

I'm looking forward to more of your wonderful graphics.
Thank you for all you do.

Matthew 11:25-30 Invitation to Come to Jesus

“25 At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.

26 Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.

27 All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.

28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
