      LOVE

      Ode To Poco

      She was an old lady

      When she came to me

      Twenty-five, that’s old

      For a horse you see

      She had lived her life

      In the mountains of Colorado

      And came to me for

      The golden years in Texas

      Little did we know

      That in retirement

      She would bring

      Light, excitement, education, and guidance

      To a woman needing her to see

      To a woman needing to believe

      Oh, ho her name Poco La Blue

      She came from a famous family too

      Dappled grey with a birthday in May

      A 1985 model she was a lady

      Delicate, determined, and true

      A lady who taught me much

      She came to me a blessing as such

      When I was not so long in tooth

      But neither were my eyes at my knees

      Now I’m in the middle

      And Poco has gone on

      Paving the way as mares do

      Lighting the path

      Our journey not through

      I know not much of her history

      Of her life before me

      Only what has followed

      Since our meet cute

      In a kill pen in shiner Texas

      Then for 10 years

      She was by my side

      She was my eyes

      my ears

      my life guide

      She took me places to my surprise

      Not atop a saddle

      But side by side

      As she taught me her ways

      I grew to know mine

      Poco taught me you see

      To tread deep waters carefully

      To step gingerly through bogs

      To back with dignity

      To gallop wildly through fields

      To keep eyes forward

      To listen ears keen

      Poco taught me healing and caring

      Medicines for my mind

      That took away the scales

      That had kept me blind

      This lady, my mare, my Poco, gave clear

      Voice to this human you see standing here

      Not bereaved by her loss

      But……Holding lessons near

      Treading carefully, stepping gingerly

      Backing dignified, galloping wildly
