Their sounds

It's silent before I walk in on them early in the dawn. As I open the barn door their ears perch high on their heads.

They start to whinny, snort and stomp their hooves. Louder and louder as if they are calling, "Get our food! Rub our noses! More hay today! Hurry!"

The grain goes into their bins. One by one they get quiet. Lastly a very peaceful sound is made. It's the sound of satisfaction.

It sounds so simple yet it is so soothing. It's their teeth politely munching their feed. It's a snort of thanks here and there.

I sit back and heed to the silence sound of serenity. The horses, their majestic actions and sounds release healing.

They tell the story of our lives. "Love me! Feed me! Fill me!" Their sounds reflect our innermost wants and needs. Their sounds deliver.
