Sparks (2009 - 2013) was by Ka Cee Smoker and out of MJG Blu Eyce Chex. She was a beautifully built filly with a lightness in her movement that was amazing!
This poem shared Stacey Westfall on October 26th 2013, the day of Spark’s passing.
We dearly loved this very special girl!
We dearly loved this very special girl!
I’ll lend you for a little while my grandest foal, He said.
for you to love while she’s alive and mourn when she is dead.
*
It may be one or twenty years, or days or months, you see,
but will you, ‘till I take her back, take care of her for me?
*
She’ll bring her charms to gladden you, and should her stay be brief,
you’ll have treasured memories as solace for your grief.
*
I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return,
but there are lessons taught on earth I want this foal to learn.
*
I’ve looked the wide world over in my search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life’s lanes, with trust, I’ve chosen you.
*
Now will you give her total love, not think the labor vain,
nor hate me when I come here to take her back again?
*
I know you’ll give her tenderness and love will bloom each day,
and for the happiness you’ve known, forever grateful stay.
*
But should I come and call for her much sooner than you’d planned,
you’ll brave the bitter grief that comes, and someday, understand.
for you to love while she’s alive and mourn when she is dead.
*
It may be one or twenty years, or days or months, you see,

She’ll bring her charms to gladden you, and should her stay be brief,

I cannot promise she will stay, since all from earth return,
but there are lessons taught on earth I want this foal to learn.
