A Need


When I was visiting out at the farm in late January, to get some horse connection,
I noticed the horse trailer parked down by the barn. When I saw Lester, he asked if I had taken a look in it. With his question, I figured they had picked up a new cow or something. I peaked in the trailer on my way out and was greeted by a soft little white nose, a gentle sniff and a bright white face. There was a young colt in the trailer! I felt the spark as soon as he touched my hand. This little guy had a need as badly as I did.


Lester said he needed a place to go and he figured he had the space and knew someone who might be willing to work with him. Later, he said, he's your's if it seems right.

I have been working with the little fella, teaching him about standing still, wearing a halter and being led. He came with the name of Two Feathers, I was calling him Charlie but I think his name is settled on Flash.
