Tails To The Wind
Horses stand
tails to the wind
No place to go
as the storm blows in
Not used to snow
eyes slowly close
Two horses shivering
in the cold
Steam coming from nose
hoof prints in snow
warm barn they seek
but the barn door's closed
Left in the snow
on each other depend
patience of Job
tails to the wind.

On one of my walks I see 3 horses in the same situation, I feel soo sorry for them. But they seem relaxed and accepting their situation, patiently watching the world go by.
