Miracle the Foal

29th December 2004 to 2nd February 2005

From Andrea 

I miss you so much Miracle, you were only a foal, Miracle died from slipping in the mud, he crushed his femur to pieces. He was only 2 months, I still see that terrible accident every time I close my eyes. and if your wondering what the year of his death was it was 2005. I'm 12, and he was my best friend. Miracle, i miss you so much, if I ever got another chance with you, I wouldn't stop saying i love you, I wouldn't stop watching you, and I would hug you all the time. I would also like to show everybody the poem I made after his death. I was asking God why he took away such an amazing foal, and as I lay on the couch crying, I got a jumble of words in my head, i think it was an answer from God. This is the poem: 

"Small hoof beats once heard thundering across sun dappled pastures, have been silenced. A mare stands alone, empty, yet full...of grief. Hearts in pain. Yet in the quiet misted mornings, small hoof beats can be heard happily playing. A life never realized here on earth lives on in our Fathers Hands."
