Craig Carpenter Downer championing the plight of wild horses- wrote the following poem, published in "Streams of the Soul," while walking in a Nevada desert:
Poem to Wild Horses
I write a poem
about the wild horse,
'cause there's a lot of feeling here,
albeit much long suffering
and abuse by man - most gruesome!
... Yet, too, vast wide-open spaces,
and MANY lives lived out
with Grace and in Joyful Freedom!
-T'is a saga of the Old West
- and I believe the New -
this story of the wild horse,
this enduring, wind-drinking
runner of desert and plain,
as - Alas!- of very Time!
His story is one with yours and mine.
May he reach far upon this Earth Plane!
For 't is a saga of what this Land is yet to be,
of a Destiny yet unfulfilled,
when Man and Horse in Freedom live
once again with mutual Respect.
