Riding my trusty steed, Ginger, along the beach with my beloved companion, Bella, by my side, is a memory that will forever be etched in my mind. The gentle sway of the horse’s gait, the crisp sea air in my lungs and the sound of Bella’s happy barking, all combine to create a sense of nostalgia that takes me back to simpler, carefree times.
It was a sunny morning, the kind that promises a perfect day ahead, when we set out on our adventure. As we made our way to the beach, Bella, a black Labrador Retriever, couldn’t contain her excitement, leaping and bounding beside us. And Ginger, my chestnut mare, with her wise and steady gaze, seemed to sense the joy in the air.
As soon as we hit the sand, Bella took off, running circles around us as we walked along the water’s edge. The cool sea spray and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore created a symphony of sensations that invigorated the soul. It was a moment of pure, unadulterated bliss as we rode along, taking in the breathtaking views of the sea and the sky
Hooves pounding the earth,
Anthony
The dog runs beside,
With endless joy and mirth,
Our bond will never subside
As the morning turned into afternoon, the clouds started to roll in and a chill wind picked up, signaling that it was time for us to head back. But not before we paused to take in one final vista of the sea, a reminder of the beauty we had just experienced.
We made our way back home, Bella sticking close by as the first drops of rain began to fall. As we dismounted and gave Ginger a well-deserved rubdown, the memories of our adventure came flooding back. The bond between humans, dogs, and horses is a special one, and I was lucky enough to have experienced it on this perfect day.
As I sit here, looking out at the stormy sea, I can’t help but feel a sense of longing for those carefree days when Bella, Ginger and I roamed the beach together. It’s a memory that will always stay with me, a reminder of a simpler time when all that mattered was the company of my beloved companions and the beauty of the sea.
