Hoofbeats —
one two three
Letters —
of a day
A dry track —dust in golden plumes
A young mare —ears pricked at the dawn
A steady gallop —drum and road agreeing
A wide plain —flipping like a page
A long shadow —racing on the left
A warm flank —rising with the breath
Each beat writes one more letter of the day
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
One two three and then a word
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
Steady rhythm and a coming sun
The plain reads on —and turns into a road
A first canter —getting the rhythm right
A hard gallop —lungs and hooves in sync
A slow trot —catching up with breath
A cool stream —water for the day
A long rest —and a sky of early stars
A short ride —back before the dusk
Each beat writes one more letter of the day
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
One two three and then a word
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
Steady rhythm and a coming sun
The plain reads on —and turns into a road
Rhythm —is a kind of patience
Beat —is a kind of plan
Every stride —a written promise
Every dawn —a sentence read aloud
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
One two three and then a word
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
Steady rhythm and a coming sun
The plain reads on —and turns into a road
Hoofbeats spelling out tomorrow —
The plain reads on —and turns into a road
