A Girl And Her Horse A girl and her horse An unbreakable pair When riding together There's magic in the air A girl and her horse Together as one Side by side And never undone A girl and her horse The best kind of team Galloping together Like it's all a dream A girl and her horse Is surely no phase For they are together forever Till the end of their days.

BEST DAY EVER I woke up on Saturday morning and remembered that today was no ordinary day.Today was going to be the best day ever!Today was going to make it into my history books!Today was... "Lauren!Come down for breakfast!" called my mom. I got dressed and came downstairs. "Whoa!" my mom said as I almost bumped into her as she was carrying a big plate of pancakes."Excited to go buy a horse today?" "Totally!" I exclaimed."It's going to be the best day in history. When can we go?" "Slow down honey,first we have to get groceries and drop your sister off at dance class." "Okay." I said a little disappointed we couldn't go right away. "I wish Dad didn't have to miss it."I said. "I know Lauren,but his work is what's paying for the horse your getting." Dad was on a business trip in France so there was no way he could be here in time to go to the horse farm to help me pick out my horse. "Hey everybody."My sister came down the stairs. "Good morning Jordan"My mom said. Jordan sat down at the the table we all ate our pancakes. After dropping Jordan at dance class we started to drive to the horse farm. When we arrived there were horses and ponies everywhere. It was the best thing I had ever seen. A man in brown cowboy boots and a white shirt approached us."Hello there." He said in a friendly voice."Welcome to Adam's horse farm. I'm Adam, how can I help you?" "My daughter was hoping to look at your horses and possibly choose one for her own." "Sure, come with me." We looked at horses for two hours and none of them seemed quite right. Just as we were about to leave I heard a whinny and turned around to see a beautiful black mare cantering towards the fence closest to me. "Hey, who is that?"I asked. "Oh, that's Midnight Dream. She must have been hiding in the shelter before." said Adam. "Can I see her?"I asked. "Well sure, I don't see why not."said Adam. We walked over to the paddock and Adam slid a halter onto Midnight Dream's head. He led her out of the paddock and into the riding ring. After he tacked her up, he asked if I wanted to ride her or if I just wanted to watch him ride. "I'll ride her. I'v been riding since I was four years old." I said. I put my left foot into the stirrup and swung into the saddle. We started with a walk and then a trot and finally a canter. "I love her!" I exclaimed. "Well Lauren, is she the one?" "No doubt about it Mom." I knew that this was the was the only horse for me. "We will bring her to your place at 2:00 pm tomorrow." Adam said. The next day I waited on the front step all day long until finally a red pickup truck with a horse trailer pulled into our driveway. After they unloaded her and put her in the shed that we had turned into a little stable, our little french bulldog Honey sniffed around the stall. When she realized there was a horse in there she gave a little yelp and bolted back into the house. We all laughed and my mom and sister went inside to comfort her. I looked at Midnight Dream and smiled. I got up and stroked her muzzle. "I love you Midnight Dream. I will keep you forever."	SWC & Starsight

|Oh to be free||By Leia Stormcloud They passed us, on mighty horses All shiny and proud and free They passed us, with swords jingling All shiny and proud and free They passed us with fearsome faces All shiny and proud and free They passed us with brave hearts beating All shiny and proud and free They passed us with fear in their eyes All shiny and proud and free They passed us with shaking hands All shiny and proud and free And they passed us with hope and courage All shiny and proud and free Then they passed us with wounds and scars All maimed and wounded but free Then they passed us with eyes full of shock All maimed and wounded but free Then they passed us with bloodstained swords All maimed and wounded but free Then they passed us with tired horses All maimed and wounded but free And they passed us with guilt in their eyes All maimed and wounded but free So they fought for us, died for us, all so that we could live free.

The Bright Side by DreamerGirl "Go Grace! You're doing it!" Sarah, Grace's riding instructor, said from the center of the ring. Grace smiled and said, "Can I gallop? Please?" Sarah chuckled. "Not yet, but you're gettin' there!" Grace came to a stop by Sarah and dismounted. "That was fun!" Grace said as she patted the palomino colored horse. "She's glistening like gold!" Sarah exclaimed, looking at the sweating palomino. "Maybe that's why her name is Sparkle? She's glistening and sparkling like gold!" Grace laughed. "No, she's just hot. Let's get this tack off of her and cool her off." Sarah smiled and said. Just then, Grace remember something. "I have to leave this sparkling, golden, horse behind." She thought. "Grace, you okay?" Sarah asked. "Um, yeah. I was just thinking about how I had to leave her..." Her voice trailed off. "Grace, she's gonna remember you - always, and you're going to remember her, right? Plus, when you guys come to visit at times, you can come see her! Sparkle is really gonna miss you, you know. So never forget her, and when you do visit, don't forget to bring her favorite snack." Sarah winked and smiled. "You always look at the bright side." Grace sighed. "Well, what would be the point of looks at the downside when you can look at the bright side that makes you feel good?" Grace thought about that. "Yes, I guess that makes sense. I'll try to look at the bright side. Until then, I'm gonna spend as much time as I can with Sparkle." Grace said hopefully, and lightening up the mood. But soon the day of their departure came. "See you soon, Sparkle. I'll never forget you, let you go, or stay away forever. I'll be back sometime, but for now...I love you...bye." Grace said with tears running down her face. Sparkle nickered before she left, but watched as Grace drove away. "Only for a while." Grace thought as she focused on the adventure ahead. ~*~The End~*~	DreamerGirl & Serene

Swift as the waves of the sea Strong as their call to me Bright like a thousand stars Their powerful legs carry them far Braving the cold and the snow Following the ocean's flow One with the sand One with the sea One with the cold One with the heat They're better than we'll ever be Save the ponies	bmeadus & Shanti

The Horse Dark as night bright as day, The horse ran towards the train, Runs like lighting sounds like thunder, It diapers out of site, Curious as i am i want to see the horse again so i take a deep breath and leap far from the train, In the silent night i could here the horse running, I look hard to find black speck, I call out to hear an answer, But i heard nothing, I sigh and turn to head home , When i did the horse was there, I through my arms around hi and he put me on his back, i took home him home that night and now we are best friends.

A True Friend by:LeRoyZach I spent most my days hiding from the real world, disappear into my world. I didn’t like the things the other ones did, and they would judge me for who I am. Excepted one day someone changed my life. I found him in the night when I was walking home. I heard the cry of a lost, lonely, homeless animal. He has been there for me from the day I found him. Two weeks after I found him my parents moved away without me and he was all I had. Cold and starveling, I soundly sleep up agenised his worm soft coat. We were in a shed I found the night before; we planned on leaving in the morning when the sun rose. “Well boy, do you think it’s time to head out?” I asked my horse in the morning. He shook his head to say yes, and then helped me up. I climbed on his back and we rode away. About an hour later we stopped to get something to eat in from the store. “Ok, you stay here and make shore no one sees you so hide some where we can sneak away.” I said and slid off his back. I walked in to the store and got some food, went up to the cash register and paid for it. I came out of the store and walked behind the store and my horse was waiting for me. I mounted and we rode away to the open filed on the other side of the town. When we got there I dismounted and set a blanket on the ground and we started to eat. Once we were done I hoped up on my horse and we started to wander the field. “Look at that view.” I said looking down at a ranch with millions of horses. “Oh no someone saw use.” I said in a worried voice. “Come on let’s get out of here.” I kicked blue in the sides and we started to run away. I looked back and there was a guy following me. I stopped blue instantly and the guy ran right past me. “Hey who are you?” asked the guy on the other horse. I just looked at him and keep walking. The guy came up to me and started to talk to me. “Hi I’m Jeff, and who are you?” He asked but I just looked at him. “Well ok then. Where are you form, because I have never seen you before?” “Good, now leave me alone!” I shot at him. “Why so mean?” Jeff said confused.	LeRoyZach & Zach
