so much life

yesterday i sat out with the horses
in the thundering rain out in their field
getting wet and watching all the trees
waving to the heaven rains appeal

as i sat in quiet soft communion
with that powerful kinship all around
i felt a subtle pulsing kind of union
with the universal force of life profound

standing in the tumbling soaking rain
with my equine friends their watchful hearts
i was thankful that i really could
be with them as they practised living art

life is like that flashing holy rain
opening my heart to kinder plains
