Horses

I’ve seen the horses sleek and steaming.

I’ve seen them munching grass and dreaming.

Flying fast and standing still,

Upon the track, upon the hill.

With hoofs like steel, and coats like down,

Gray and silver, fawn and brown.

Ginger-colored, specked with cream,

Horses run and horses dream.

I have heard them singing, sighing.

I have seen them flinging, flying.

Fleet and fast upon their courses!

Have you ever seen the horses?
