A horses tail... summer


                  A horses tail Summer





It’s summer now I sniff the ground and feel the moisture from the grass on my nose.
It tickles and makes me snort a warm cloud of steam blown out from my nostrils. I lift my head and shake my mane as a fly rudely buzzed around my ear. Go away fly.

It’s summer and the air is sweet with the smell of hay. I love the summer, how the sun warms my back and the ground cushions my hoofs. I shake my mane high in the sky as the last rays of light engulf me.

In the summer my lovely owner leaves me out to graze and play all day in the paddock. I'm not scared of the night. The darkness doesn’t last so long as the dreaded cold winter days. I gently hoof the ground and neigh.
It’s summer now the land is warm, the sun is high and the nights are not so long.

I have a friend who comes to graze when we meet we play and play. She loves to throw her head up high. We nuzzle each other and she strokes my side. We lift up and dance around on our back legs. When she comes, her owner comes too and we often get to go out riding.

Oh, how I love to go for a trot along the grassy path. I stand up tall, so proud my owner always pats my back and tell me what a good girl I am. We trot along together we go. Sometimes these shiny machines wizz past but I do not scare my heads high and I neigh.

It’s summer now so much time to play. So many things to smell, and how I love to hold my head up high and neigh and dream of all the lovely things I did today.

Helen Lewins is an author. Helen was born in Northumberland but due to the closure of the coal mines, her parents moved the family to North London to take up work as publicans. After school, she started an apprenticeship with an electrical engineering medical company where she worked for many years as a Service Engineer. With a calling for something else more creative she went travelling in the UK and worked the summer in a hotel on the Jurassic Coast. This led her to study hospitality management and after graduation, she took on a role as a hotel Manager back in Northumberland. Then her life changed forever and along came her beautiful son. It became obvious early on that he was developing at a different rate from his peers. He had limited speech until he was eight years old. Eventually, after quite a long journey he was diagnosed with Autism. That is when Helen started to write about Miss Furry to entertain her son as it was based on their pet cat. It has been a very personal journey for them both and Helen hopes that Miss Furry brings joy to other children. Helen and her Son live in Northumberland with Miss Furry who does indeed spend her days patrolling the fence.
