I have this book called "Your Pony Your Horse" and at the beginning of it it has this cute poem. I had read it before and liked it, but now I like it even more and can relate to it now that I have a horse of my own. I changed the name from Diamond to Chester. heehee!
A Pony’s Dream
By Cherry Hill
I’m walking though a meadow
The grass is green and tall
I plan on grazing all day long
But I hear a friendly call.
“Chester, Chester, come to me”
The voice sounds by the gate
“You’d better stop your munching
We have to watch your weight.
My human friend then halters me
And leads me to my stall
I get a thorough grooming
While tied safely to the wall.
My hooves are cleaned of mud and stones
My chest and belly brushed
My mane and tail are fingered through
The grooming is not rushed.
Next a saddle and a pad
Are placed upon my back
We’re getting ready for a ride
With safe and tidy tack.
We start out rather slowly
So my muscles can warm up
By the time we’re out an hour
I’m frisky as a pup.
We take our time when walking home
I sigh and stretch my back
The trail ride felt good to me
I like my fitted tack.
Again I’m groomed and cared for well
My every need is met
It’s when I’m hugged around my neck
My human’s eyes get wet.
Am I dreaming or is this real?
Are you my human friend?
You are?! That’s great! A dream come true.
May our friendship never end.

OK! So one of my first posts was of pictures of my valley. (If you want to see them, go to the August 22, 2012 post. I didn't actually post them then, that is when I switched websites. So don't be confused about the dates then.)
I took some more pictures of the valley about a month or two ago.
These are more of the sky than the valley, but they are still my valley and they are beautiful. At least I think so!!
In the last picture, you can see a horse fence hanging in the light of morning. I think its so fun! Enjoy!
