Moon Horse

I live next door to a horse farm called Coven Farm. And the people who run the farm never put horses in the pen closest to my house. But they placed one in there all this week, and I absolutely fell in love with it. Then, they took it away. I was so angry.

The horse was beautiful, it's coat was gray with white circles that looked like the craters on the moon. It looked like God had used a bit of the moon to paint his coat. I nicknamed it Luna (even though it's a boy). I was so upset when then took him away, when I saw the empty pen my whole day was ruined, and I don't even know what breed he is. Everyday when I walked home from school he would always look up right at me, it was the cutest thing. Now he is in the pen beside River Chase road. It isn't all bad, I can still see him but to do that I have to: leave my backyard into the road behind my house, walk up the road till I reach the farm, and stand on the side dangerously close to the cars driving by.

The view is great, Coven Farm has beautiful horses there. They have a russet colored one (who i think is a female), and midnight black one with a white star on his forehead. I have yet to name them all. I'm gonna take pictures to show you maybe even place Luna and the horses in one of my stories.

The full moon illuminated a small clearing shrouded in a thin sheet of mist. I could see the vapor of my breath rise as I breathed in and out. I wasn't sure what I was doing here, I wasn't sure if I was dreaming or not. The cold wind blowing around me seemed to real to be a dream. I was pondering this when a movement at the other end of the clearing caught my attention. A horse stepped into the clearing. It's coat was gray with white circles that looked like the craters on the moon.

The Moon horse trotted closer trough the mist, leading two others out from the safety of the forest. The two followed the Moon horse slowly, coming closer, cautiously, step by step. One, black as midnight the other, red as flame. The Midnight horse whinnied his disapproval when the Moon horse came closer. I shivered and wrapped my arms around my torso trying to keep warm. The Moon horse rubbed his nose on the side of my face. I closed my eyes wishing I could be back in my warm bed, not under the full moon in an empty clearing with three mysteriously beautiful horses.


What do you think. Remember R&R. Thank you, I'll post more tomorrow.
