I Saw...

I saw a boy with no legs sitting on the floor, put on a horses back. Now he has four. I saw a blind man stumble in the dark, mount an Arabian and ride in the park. I saw a little girl twisted by disease, sit on a horses back pretty as you please. I saw a woman who is mentally ill, laugh and smile while riding old Bill. I saw myself change inside, When I saw the handicapped ride.

Happiness starts with a pony for the child who is out on his own. With a pony to chase and a helper to care he will can never again feel alone.

I Saw a Child...

I saw a child who couldn't walk, sit on a horse, laugh and talk. Then ride it through a field of daisies and yet he could not walk unaided. I saw a child, no legs below, sit on a horse, and make it go Through woods of green to sit and stare, except from a chair. I saw a child who could only crawl mount a horse and sit up tall. put it through degrees and paces and laugh at the wonder in our faces. I saw a child born into strife, take up and hold the reins of life and that same child was heard to say, "Thank God for showing me the way..."
