Equine Dreaming

Shaded by the swaying pines, moonlit shivers sway and shift
Water carpers from the spring, sliding by with gentle sound
Thrilling whispers shiver past; firm embrace bestows her gift

Poised nearby, the unicorn drinks where crystal waters drift
Golden horn and silver fleece lightly gleaming all around,
Shaded by the swaying pines, moonlit shivers sway and shift

Dancing, leaping, cloud to cloud, held aloft by feathered lift
Flying horses fill the night, sharing the joy she found-
Thrilling whispers shiver past; firm embrace bestows her gift

Swung beneath broad ivory wings, pearly hoofs had formed a rift
Chance and magic joined to coax water from a stony mound,
Shaded by swaying pines, moonlit shivers sway and shift

Subtle whinneys on the breeze blend with warbling water-sift
Joined by neighs and clops until mystic equine tones abound
Thrilling whispers shiver past; firm embrace bestows her gift
Shaded by swaying pines, moonlit shivers sway and shift

I chose this poem for the mystical aura about it. it has a sense of movement and life that comes from the way the words are put. All an all I think this is a great poem.
