Happy Valentine’s Day! In honor of a day that’s a celebration of love, we give you this poem from your horse.
I love you for all the things that you do.
You buy me hay, and feed, and even shoes.
In return, I’ll let you ride on my back.
Our partnership is the best. Nothing we lack.
Treat me well. Be kind. Give patience that’s due.
In return, you’ll find a friend no more true.
Take the trophies and ribbons. None will I miss.
In the end, all I need is a pat or a kiss.
For you are my person, and I am your horse.
Of this I am certain, as a matter of course.
