The summer sun was starting to lose its grip, ushered out by a gentle breeze carrying the smell of earth and clover. The stillness was broken by the drumming of hooves as they landed upon the field with a rhythmic cadence. At once she seemed to materialize from the grass and with a grace and ease quickly covered the expanse before us. A moment later the silence returned and she vanished into her surroundings, was she really there?

Beautiful poetry in motion
~~~~~~~~
Away, away, from men and towns,
To the wild wood and the downs -
To the silent wilderness
Where the soul need not repress
Its music, lest it should not find
An echo in another's mind,
While the touch of Nature's art
Harmonizes heart to heart.

Lovely photo. I caught something very similar on a recent trip to the Smoky Mountains.
