| A poem, submitted
by Sue Henderson
Muscles forged of
iron
Friendship born of
time
Heart of a Lion
Spirit of the Eagle
Your soul has joined
with mine
Through dark and
noon day heat
We ride and run and
strain
The pounding of your
rock hard
feet
My hand upon your rein
'Pon wings unseen
your feet do fly
Your eyes can pierce
the wind
Your strength of will
is an iron
grip
As is your will to win
Not hill nor
mountain
Rock nor stream
Can make you falter
stride
And with the pride of
Royalty
Upon your back I
Ride
The miles stretch
before us
But more are left
behind
Two are one
I am you
That distant dream we
find
