Harvey's Song

Sand and Stone...A Song To My Horse

You are made of sand and stone.

Sand and stone swept up by a desert wind and sculpted by some poet God and brought to me by angels.

Angels that heard a child's prayers and felt the dreams in the little girl's heart and gifted that woman with the thing her soul most longed for and that was you - my beautiful dancer.

If I could open my body up and give you my strengh - my very heart to make you well - I surely would because you are the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

In my dreams we fly across this earth and when I look down your feet do not touch the ground - we fly and there is no more pain.

We have flown like this for a thousand years and will fly for a thousand more because we belong to each other.

You and I of sand and stone.
