Wild!

Congratulations, Irene, on your tenth blogiversary!  Thanks for inviting me to this totally WILD celebration of ten years of blogging!
http://irenelatham.blogspot.com/2015/11/its-wild-10-year-blogiversary.html


One of Irene's blog posts back in August this year she told of seeing the wild ponies of Chincoteague and Assateague at the annual Pony Penning Week.  As a young girl I'd read and seen a movie about this event and was fascinated with it.  I'd wanted a horse all my life and finally as an adult, I bought my first horse... but that's a blog post for another time.

With my new pencils just itching to be used, I decided to try a horse and a WILD haiku in honor of Irene's 10th blogiversary:

It's going to be quite a WILD day!  Enjoy every moment! Congratulations, Irene Latham!  And continue to live your poem!

    Donna, I did not know that are an artist beside a poet. Your horse is a symbol of wild freedom.

    A poet and a talented artist, too. I used to love to draw horses when I was younger. I haven't tried lately, but I am inspired by your drawing. Don't you love how many different directions Irene's wild has taken us?

    Ready to race the wind alongside of this beauty, Donna!

    Your Haiku & your Horse are each powerful.

    Together, stunning.
