Poems Against Horse Slaughter
« Thread Started on Aug 10, 2007, 8:58pm »		[Quote]
For those of you who are against horse slaughter, post all of the poems about horse slaughter here! Whether it's about a horse going to a slaughter house, or horses in one, or just about the horrors of slaughtering horses, write your poems! Attach your poems to the letters or e-mails you send to your congressman. Or even e-mail Terri Farley with your poems. (Try to put ALL of your poems on one e-mail so she doesn't have 5 million e-mails in her Inbox. Email is farleyterri@aol.com) With many poems, she'll probably be able to show other authority figures, like her State Senator, that we really care and we want horse slaughter to stop!

I love that idea!

Look into their eyes
And tell me what you see
What do they show?
The eyes of a horse

Do they look on?
With quiet curiosity?
Do they show a hint of mischief?
Ready to take place?

Now imgine these eyes
These soul-deep seas
Standing in a line
Facing the screams

See those eyes turn towards you
See them not understand
See them say to you,
"I thought you loved me?"



:'( :'( :'( I was crying by the end of it, that's probably the sadest poem I've ever written!

That is so sad, Spirit! Unfortuantely, I'm hopeless at poems and would never write a good one if my life depended on it!

She's longing for flight
And knows I'm aware
So I loosen the reins
And she accepts my dare

Off all at once
At a gallop we tear
The wind cools our faces
And whips at our hair
The trees are a blur
And the grounds barely there

Day turns to night
But we don't really care
When we stop time has gone
But it's cool and it's fair
So we both have a drink
At the creek that flows there

It's the nature and nothing
And the cool forest air
It's time to loose time
And the love of a mare

I can almost be lost
I can live without care...
But sadly I see that
Her hoof prints are still there
Oh! For a horse that can gallop on air!
