Horses in Heaven (a poem)

Horses in Heaven (a poem for Aunt Jennie)

I wonder if there are horses in Heaven,
and fields of emerald green.
With trails from here to forever, 
and no dirty stalls to clean.

I wonder if there are horses in Heaven,
with manes of shiny gold.
And the weather is always perfect,
not too hot or too cold. 

I wonder if there are horses in Heaven,
that you can ride all day and all night.
And you never grow tired from riding,
because your soul is happy and light.

I wonder if there are horses in Heaven,
with eyes that sparkle like stars.
And freedom to roam the hillsides,
no ropes, no fences, no bars. 

I know there are horses in Heaven,
and now they'll have loving care.
For today an angel did join them,
and she'll ride for eternity there. 





*Ride in peace Aunt Jennie (Jennifer Cowdrey Larson)
You will be missed here on Earth, but you will be carried in our hearts forever.*
