At the fairs, do you remember riding the ponies, under the big tent, going around in circles, with all the other kids? Everyone is pretending to be a cowboy or cowgirl and is thrilled with their little ride around the circle. The ponies are happy, or content, or flicking their ears back and forth, wondering whether they like this or not. But patiently, the ponies give the children rides for hours. Such fun for the children and for the parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents, enjoying and taking pictures of this great event.
So many of us love ponies and begin there with our love for ponies and the bigger one, the horses.
by Nancy Reishus, great lover of ponies and horses
