Sinopsis

A collection of poetry from a small farm on the Colorado prairie, tiny stories in simple words, praise for the beautiful fragile land, and love poems to horses. This is a 106-page book of poetry and full-color photography, a softcover mini-coffee table book. á Some heartfelt, some humorous, these poems are a howl to the prairie wind. I',m a woman on a farm, wonderstruck by this simple life with its plain beauty, the comfort of daily chores and bittersweet sunsets. Even my words can',t look away.á á And the horses.á This old gray mare isn',t over that girlish phase. None of us are, so I write love poems to horses, putting words to this equine passion that powers a central part of our lives. What is it that pulls us so fiercely to horses? á Horse Prayers is poetry but this love affair with brevity doesn',t threaten my long-term relationship with writing non-fiction. It',s more like an inky ménage à trois.áWisháWe felt them closebefore we had skin,from an infinite prairiethe vibration began.A slow rolling nickerárumbled, more feltthan heard. Horsescalled to us, beforewe were born, so wewould remember theiráwarm breath when wefirst saw fairy-tale imagesin children&rsquo,s books. Wewere theirs long beforewe called them our own.
