Free and Unharnessed

The legend
in sculptured stone,
married to the universe,
grazes among goddesses
I remember
his soul,

riding freedom,
on a rainbow track,
out of Rhiannon's stable,
uncontained, a stallion,
running with wild horses,
free and unharnessed

There is truth in this steed,
as pure Kentucky bluegrass—
saddle up
make it over the fence
good boy
you’re going to last.
