Well, I'm at it again. :-)  Just wrote a new poem and would love to hear what you guys think of it.

a black horse blazed through my dreams last night,
ripping away at my pleasant sleep-
hooves pounding across my field of contentment
digging in the ground so deep.

it's eyes were wild and bewildered,
what it was looking for- I'll never know-
fire flew from it's silky mane,
and set the darkness aglow.

it's movements were quick and steady,
it's gait a wonder to behold-
it's destiny at first seemed so clear to me,
in wonder i watched it unfold.

i thought it was something to fear at first,
then i slowly realized it meant no harm-
it's strength, it's  power, his mystery,
were simply part of his charm.

i tried to reach out to capture it,
but it disappeared  before my eyes-
just a dark horse in the night,
telling no truths and no lies.

Good. Of course a poem has to mean something. What I get from it is: "The only thing you have to fear, is fear it self."

sofa - I like your take on my poem. Alot of times the words come to me with out much thought, it's a natural flow. Usually, after I write one I re-read it and find deeper meaning, an insight into my own emotions. I'm sure this poem with mean different things to different people, put you pretty much hit the nail on the head.

I am a homemaker. I hope to start breeding goats in the spring. I have 2 alpines, 1 nigerian dwarf, 1 pygmy, and on mix goat. My children are grown, so now my goats are my "kids".
