I Ride With The Wind By Kamla Green 11/18/07
I ride with the wind on my journey through time, With my swift horse beneath me, the world is all mine.
I ride through the meadows where the wild flowers grow, Glancing over my shoulder at the sun shadowing low.
I ride through the forest dodging the limbs of the trees, And in the deep shadows with a floor of dead leaves.
I ride through the pasture where the cows are mooing low. And I feel like a wrangler from years ago.
I ride in the mountains where the view is grand, And I take in all the beauty of my native land.
I ride down an old trail on a backwoods road, Showing loggers were here a long time ago.
I ride beside the creek and watch the fishes swim by, Feeding on the bugs as they fall from the sky.
I ride on the sandbar where the ocean meets the land, My horse loves the feeling of prancing in the sand.
I ride when the frost has covered the ground, Keeping an eye out for rabbits as they dash around.
I ride in the moonlight down through the dale, The only sound I hear is of a nightingale.
I ride in the sunshine and the rays soothe me, And the beauty of nature is all that I see.
I ride in the rain and it falls on me. Wet I feel good and cleansed I will be.
I ride with my hair blowing in the wind, It gives me great pleasure to know where I’ve been.
I ride with a purpose that I shall never forget, As I ride with glory toward the sunset.
I ride with time, and I ride with fate, As I keep on riding to my appointed date.

Kandy as you know I grew up with horses and around them, but this just put me back in time...Once riding through the woods on a runaway stud dodging tree limbs and finally posing to jump a wide ditch... when he stopped... and I went sailing into the mud! Yes, it brought back memories of all those times when it was just me and that horse in the woods or running in the pastures..Lovely, it simply took my breath away and gave me cold chills!

You made me see, through your lovely poem that "RIDING" is a more exciting word to describe the experience of life vs. walking, sailing, flying or driving. Not to mention: dragging, limping, crawling or even skipping. Riding through life implies fun in the good company of a living creature. I got it.That just reminds me to turn up the heat on finding a boyfriend. Beatiful poem, meaningful life. Thanks for sharring. Happy Thanksgiving to you.
