Poem for my lil mare Indy that passed in the fall of 2023 to celebrate and help heal the grief and sorrow that is nestled in the emptiness of a quiet barn.
The author recounts the emotional bond they shared with their horse, Indy, who recently passed away. Indy wasn’t just a horse, but a cherished companion whose understanding exceeded language barriers. The pain of losing Indy is vividly felt, yet solace is found in memories and photographs of their shared experiences. Despite experiencing a devastating fire in their local wilderness and the loss of Indy, looking forward, the author aims to explore their state with a new horse, Rain, using hope and Indy’s spirit as their guiding forces.
