Tails To The Wind

 

Horses stand

tails to the wind

No place to go

as the storm blows in

 

Not used to snow

eyes slowly close

Two horses shivering

in the cold

 

Steam coming from nose

hoof prints in snow

warm barn they seek

but the barn door's closed

 

Left in the snow

on each other depend

patience of Job

tails to the wind.

On one of my walks I see 3 horses in the same situation, I feel soo sorry for them. But they seem relaxed and accepting their situation, patiently watching the world go by.
