What a precious gift you had/have! I envy you a parent, despite your pain and anguish. They say the pain and anguish will fade. I have yet to discover that, with regard to Flicka, my beloved horse - and he has been in Heaven for 8 years (on 28 April 2009) . However, I am quiver-grateful and humbled that I was the chosen mother of the most wonderful horse in the world for 20½ years and that I knew him for 2 years before that. Your poem is beautiful, sensitive, compassionate and so very real and alive.
