Analysis of Ebullient Horse
In the sparkle of its white colouring colours
riding in sparkling giant strides
railing and ruling in the thick
of the black mocking jungles
Tutored by the strange man from the moon
that makes the horse live
in her better days.
But suddenly,came the rebel of the
horse
asking for liberty
Liberty to go to the journey alone
still in the dark anry jungles
that was now beset with rays of the moon
Though in its own way took oath
to make this land of jungle better
But it was not to be
As the horse fell a victim with those chalatans
that are hoofs drunks
As they plundered the horse
Into a sinking abyss along the jungle
In the midst of glowing waters of life
the horse fell into a wanting and hopelss coma
whether the horse will rise or not
To live or to die, we who lived
by it's painful love, cannot tell
This is the painful tragedy of the horse.
