Sketch of a Horse by Leonardo da Vinci
Taking Flight
Eyes of fire
Beauty denying
Iron limbs
Taking flight
Riding bareback through maelstroms
On golden conquest.

Iron limbs? Jo, get off that merry-go-round!
Sorry, couldn't help myself. This is beautiful, really... and I like it that every word matters, it's not self-indulgent or wordy. Nice work...
I have a book with Divinci's drawings, One I was thinking about writing a poem about a few years ago, but never did. Thanks for sharing.
great poem Jo
ever ride bareback thu a maelstrom? Not as fun as it sounds. OK, I had a saddle but it still was pretty scary.
but then again I had no golden conquest...
fun read
You get so much out of a line drawing ... this is as powerful as the taunt lines of DiVinci, nicely done, as usual - a fan
