FF55, 2/9/12, Real true peace.

Just down this windy road
lives a woman with some farm land.     
She hays the fields in summer .
Keeps some in a lovely big red barn,
to feed an old white horse.
Out in the middle of one pasture,
lies a good size Labyrinth.
It takes an hour to walk
with the horse as witness.

She needs to ride that horse, he'd get her home in no time. Or is he too old to ride? How many horses do you have Izzy?

I loved this. There has to be a tragedy attached to this one...I love the mystery of it.

This made me super nostalgic for living in Tennessee.

Horses are always the center of a powerful symbology, and I worry about those who aren't drawn to walk that labyrinth. Nice 55--excellent narrative with a bit of mystery.

That's a wonderful labyrinth. We're thinking of putting one in the font yard, but it would take all of thirty seconds to walk it, no matter how intricate we make it.

True peace indeed. That's what I feel now. :)

the one hour walk itself makes me happy.

This is surely a story you must write more of.
