Field of Sorrow

 


They are all out there,

our furry loves - the foal, 

gone way too soon, buried

with the ball he loved so much,

his mother, Beau, the grand old mare,

who once stood between two fighting horses,

bared her teeth and bellowed

her "Enough!" She was undisputed

queen of the paddock during

her reign. Other loves

followed - beloved dogs and cats,

Jasmine, buried with her

big stuffed moose, beside her

brother Lukey (they came

and left this earth together)

and more loved horses,

so now we look across

a field of sorrow, which also

is a field of love and pain,

and the hope that one day

we will see our furry loves 

again.
