Calm ..... For Now

[Wild Freedom]

Her gypsy lineage showed through as she clomped into the beautiful meadow. Flowers dotted the landscape with small bushes here and there...it seemed as if the very air sparkled with something unexplainable...

Her soft black and white coat shown in the light that filtered through the clouds, shining down upon her. Her slightly large face rose to the heavens and an exhale of breath was given. She felt so calm at that moment...something she almost never felt as she was one of those horses that....is lively and hyper. But no, at this moment she felt older than she was. Being only four...she was still somewhat like a filly.

Opening her chocolate brown eyes, she lowered her head and glanced around. She honestly had no idea where she was at, but it was certainly beautiful and untouched by horses. It seems as if no one has been here yet.

If only she had company though. She felt up to prancing and playing and exploring...but maybe she shouldn't. She new she was hyper, shy, and spooks easily. Every small thing seemed to shock her.

She snorted and stomped the ground once...twice....and then stopped. Flicking her tail slightly, she perked her ears forward and started to prance to the side....then to the other side. Finally she settled slightly under a shady tree. This spot would do.

Lowering her head to the grass and flowers she snuffled lightly before starting to graze. Perhaps someone would join her...

[Windstrider]

Windstrider tossed her head as she started to lope across the meadow. Long black legs stretching out to their fullest, she arched her neck proudly as she ran, her long, wavy black tail flowing out behind her. Leaping over a small bush in her path, she kicked her hind legs out playfully, happy to be alive.

Skidding to a sudden halt as she nearly sat on her hindquarters, Windstrider paused to sniff and listen. Small ears pricked, nostrils flared to catch every scent and sound. Noticing the smell of another horse, one she had not met, the pure blue black friesian arched her neck again and pranced in place for a moment before starting the walk towards the scent.

As she walked, she grazed, randomly wandering from grass clump to grass clump. When she reached the tree, she brought her elegant head up, wuffling softly before snorting, "Hello."
