Analysis of One Mare



One mare decided to walk through the dense forest.
And it grazed upon lands and lands of grass.
It is quite interesting that one mare can make a difference.

That yet, humans are less than a mare.
One mare changed the world one by one.
It foaled a beautiful Paint Horse.

The mare nursed the foal;
It was a cloudy day;
And a human was in sight.
The mare was keen and bright.

You see, the human got caught in the storm.
The mare ran to it;
Offering to give the human a ride.
Meanwhile; the foal was alone.
But the mare was determined to save the human.
When the human's daughter didn't dare to save her mom.

When the mare returned;
Her foal was dead.
This was all done because one mare cared
More about the human than her daughter did.
The mare killed herself in shame.

Like to write poetry. Write short stories as well. A lot of people don't know that I can write poetry because I speak like this and write like this on public profiles. Coming from a family of writers. No training, just natural. I express what I feel about things through poems. more…
