All along the ground
Wildflowers mingled with grass
Sway in the saddle.
Art Prescription: Took a long trail ride today! Perfect weather and the scent of honeysuckle filled the air. Along the ground I saw purple-spring vetch, clover, and purple nettle.

At the sideline, I
Watch her canter through the field
I’m jealous and proud.
Art Prescription: This beautiful young lady rides my horse Finn on Tuesdays. She loves him. Today I watched her ride and felt both a sense of true pride to see my beautiful horse move, and I have to admit, jealousy. It’s okay though, it’s a win-win, and is super good for him. He OF COURSE! knows I’m his momma and loves me MORE. LOL, Sweet boy…

When a clip-clop-clip
A knicker, and hay chomping
Soothe your heart and soul.
Art Prescription: Doing ground-work today with Finn I was reminded how much I love the sound of his hooves taking step after step. He knickers at me as I approach his paddock, surely food related, but I like to believe it’s because he looks forward to our time together as much as I do.

Finn softly nickers
As I roll the hay cart up
To winter paddock.
ARt Prescription: Beautiful and cool NC day at the farm. Finn got a spa day…just grooming and petting and kissing.

Pulling at the bit
Takes off into a cantor
Windy day at farm.
Art Prescription: I could tell the minute I haltered Finn that he was energized. So beautiful these feeling creatures.

Clear skies, hawks, blue birds
Early morning crisp, cold, air
I feed the horses.
Art Prescription: After a busy Open Studio, it was so peaceful to go out on a cold winter morning and be with the horses.

Hold reins with thumbs up
As if a glass of champagne
Bubbles rising up.
Art Prescription: Did a private lesson today on Finn! So much good stuff…gonna be sore! Can’t wait to start my Women’s Intuitive Riding!! Working on an alternative palette of colors.
