For a lover of horses (and dogs) and an understanding of their utility and history, this poem is one of the most gripping and memorable of all. When I read it at gatherings there are many tears shed and there's always a catch in my throat. I love it..
It was so neat and so inspiring Are you talking about any farmer or was this what you had to do when you where younger?
