My Horse, My Heart: The Morgan Horses of the University of Connecticut
Thank you to everyone for your help and support--so many people worked behind the scenes to get this book FINISHED and in print. I could not have done this without you. Take a bow!
This book journey introduced me to world of Morgan horses and their loving humans. I discovered that the Morgan horse world is incredibly warm, gracious, supportive and helpful. I made friends, and was given opportunities to swing a leg over a couple of amazing UConn-bred Morgan horses. Sheer joy!
Oh my goodness, thank you. I am humbled and honored!
I hope all of you enjoy the book as much as I enjoyed writing it.
warmest regards from Hampton, Connecticut,

My Horse, My Heart
Under a tree, my beloved steed
Earth and roots now hold you near.
Twisted branches scrape the painted sky
With sun to soothe and stars to guide.
My old friend, he is there in the nimbus
Wind shapes his hoof and molds his ear.
I see him in the rays through my window
I hear him in the gust through the flue.
My horse, my heart-- he is near.
My horse, my heart--he is here.
