A Leap of Faith
By Rosie S
A Leap of Faith
Tall, warm, furry,
a not so little pony.
Standing 16 hands high,
Tall and proud.
Ears flicked forward,
Focused.
A towering jump, looming ahead.
Striding forward,
To a canter.
Closer and closer.
The crowd pauses,
One, two, three,
He takes a leap of faith.
Soars over the jump,
Leaving my stomach behind.
Landing, all four feet grounded.
Safe and sound.
The crowd roars, success.
