these pandemic days
think of the horses clopping
through the crowded streets
remember children
in costumes so fantastic
dancing in the street
in such crowded scenes
the horses teeth could be seen
their quiet laughter

I'll take a laughing horse any day over a braying ass (like the one we still have in our White House).
"love the beacon of kindness" - for sure!
Love the smiles and hope and love in your poems!
Those celebrations must be colorful and loud! I can picture the scene even in the short lines. I love your horse!
I love the idea of the quietly laughing horse....an apt metaphor for present election news!
Love this. Kindness is what we need to share now.

I love this sequence, Gillena – and the drawing!
I enjoyed reading this and connected with the "beacon of kindness." Yes, it helps us go on, remembering that good things still exist. Happy Sunday, Gillena!
Couriously I can remember horses pulling delivery vans during and after WW2 in Britain. It was good when the horse left behind a liitle present from his behind in the street and was sent by Mum to collect it to help fertilize the garden!

I like the contrast between the cheery children and the ominous tone of the horse's quiet laughter.
