Front hooves leave the ground,

As he rises high into a rear.

Flexing his powerful legs,

I grab his mane in fear.

Yet gravity takes hold,

Pulling me off my steed.

But I have to sweep away the dirt,

And force him to concede.

Urging him over the jump,

I feel his agile flight.

His unfaithful act forgiven,

I smile with delight.

In life you have to be prepared,

If you fall once, you can't remain scared.
