Baby Horses

I promise you......
Let's make a wish........
When I look into your innocent eyes,
I see the future of the skies,
Hoping to honor your life with respect,
Too often I see many do it with regret.
As we share a wish together,
My yearning is to have a bond forever,
Hoping to offer you only one home,
So you will not being sold around to roam.
The problem we have it seems these days,
Is not seeing you in your triumphant ways.
You are more to me than just a beast,
I wish for you your freedom to be released.
But, it’s unreasonable these days to set you free,
For there is nothing left for you to see.
Your slavery from the past was all said and done,
But I know there are others who still see you as one.
Please forgive us now if it’s not too late,
Because I truly wish I knew your fate.
Even with the best intentions,
It seems we must offer more interventions.
In the end, there is only so much wishing and praying one can do,
Now I leave it up to the rest of you!

(P.S. Please do not leave halters on horses, especially little baby horses. It is too easy for them to catch it on something or have their little feet caught while scratching an ear and they will panic and seriously injure themselves. It is a very dangerous situation that can easily be avoided.)
