Fog and ice.
Five friends.
One magnificent endurance horse.
Ahead: The Rainbow Bridge
A last bucket of oats. An offering for the after-life: his worn, oversized Easyboots, carrots, a sprinkling of oats, an apple. The last pets. The last whispered goodbyes.
A gentle easing of the way to the bridge.
Two final, easy, deep breaths of life on this earth before starting on his way.
Farewell, my old friend Rhett.
May your size 2.5 hoof prints be too big to fill
May your tail always wave like a flag in the air
May your snorts always alert your herd
May you always be hard to catch
May you hold them all in awe of your mighty GO in the next life as you did us in this one.
May we ride you again on the other side
