Once a proud horse galloping across waving grasses<\/p>\n
deepest green turned blue<\/p>\n
the sun warming and nourishing her senses<\/p>\n
she belonged among the warm winds and soft rains.<\/p>\n
Her home was free.<\/p>\n
Her whole being was boundless.<\/p>\n
She found herself swept in the flood<\/p>\n
as the blue burnished darker and<\/p>\n
grass turned into tangling seaweed.<\/p>\n
Her whole being was bound, yet<\/p>\n
she learned to pivot and twist.<\/p>\n
The tides caressed warm waves around her<\/p>\n
and she became a seahorse.<\/p>\n
Proud now with a majesty born of forced then determined transformation,<\/p>\n
she glides through the water’s depths.<\/p>\n
