Equine Influence
Connect with your authentic self through the influence of the horse.
THE INFLUENCE OF AN EQUINE
         
Opening the door…
Entering the Stairway to Heaven.
Shuffling hoofs…
Muffled snorts…
Gentle chewing…
This quiet place surrounds me.

Anticipation rises,
As I approach my mirror reflection…
A chestnut gelding…
With liquid eyes,
And a velvet muzzle.

From his heart,
Comes a greeting…
So deep in it’s meaning,
That if I allow myself just a moment,
My heart is filled with overwhelming joy.

For the Influence of an Equine
Is rooted deep…
Deep within all humanity…
Breathe in its sweet smell,
Open your awareness…
To all it has to whisper...
Into the depths of your soul.

Lori and Henry
“There is always a reason a horse appears in a person’s life.  It is no accident when they come to us, if only in our dreams.  If our hearts fill with longing thinking of them, they carry a potent message.  Horses may enter our lives for a short time or be present throughout.  However they make a presence, their impact is permanent.  Carrying us at crossroads, assisting us with burdens, empowering us with sensations of flight and freedom, they often catch us off guard with the possibility of new horizons and secret gates to our souls that need unlocking.”
