NaPoWriMo 15: If I were...

If I were a mare,

Gentle and sweet,

I'd gallop over mountains,

New creatures to meet.

Nicker here and there,

To call a friend,

With hooves like iron,

Energy I spend.

Sun sets on the meadow,

The forest and river,

I trot home,

The moon now a sliver.

Nestling down in my cozy stall,

Sleep overcomes me,

I remember the journey,

Every star, rock and tree.
