Devil Lived

Born with an evil look in his eyes,
Devil he was named .
His valor only increased his worth ,
companions we remained.

Freedom and will we had from birth
his spirit so like mine;
I spiked his oats with rosehip
it helped his coat to shine.

Inhaling embers of admiration,
he was filled with pride.
His nostrils flared, we'd lose our breath,
on our daily ride.

Mane like chains of silver,
his sweat dried from the sun.
We splintered every bridge we crossed;
our goal was having fun.

Devil was my angel,
our kinship will never be sieved.
His colts and filly's share his look;
a horse named Devil Lived.
