Today is Roman's Ms. Bodi's 29th Birthday!
She got a spa day...
Shampoo, shave, pedicure and her new favorite treat.. Cantalope, (home grown)..
I wrote this verse for her when she turned 25... now as she heads towards another decade...I think I need to share it again...
Ms. Bodi My love
My one true passion, was awakened by a Equine new breed, it was so unexpected , yes truly, indeed.
I thought I had experienced love and companionship from past loyal pets
But in hindsight I have come to find …this gypsy horse is a breed like no other… a one of a kind.
The moment I set eyes on her sweet drafty head, and stocky little body,
I knew she was beaconing to me, to come join her on a journey, one that could only take us to new heights, challenging, me to be more involved with human kind.
To forget the past and move forward in a positive fashion to where I would find, peace and fortitude.
A place to make my mark, have an impact, on something so new,
To help spread the word of what this wonderful equine breed would do ,
for a little love and affection.
This sweet Gypsy Mare, Ms. Bodi took me in a new direction.
One for the most part I had no intention.
She is so full of love and caring, she made me a better person And taught me to become better at giving and sharing.
Ms. Bodi senses peoples’ needs, she is always present and more than happy to please.
Her Sensuality is only surpassed by her Spirituality, she has amazing powers to make things happen, for, those she considers her friends.
And I am sure she will continue her amazing skills right up until the end.
It was after our first encounter, she kept coming to me in dreams, calling louder and louder…
Until, I finally conceded, to pursue her purchase and bring her into my life.
She came to me fully enchanted and has helped me learn how to handle diversity and strife.
Romany’s Ms. Bodi is very special indeed……
I now know that she was brought to me at a special time,
A time, that, I was personally in need.
She gave me purpose and power to persevere, she taught me no matter what people do,
Her love is always very near , dear and true.
Ms. Bodi you can , and never will be replaced…
I know in all your years with me
You have put smiles on many faces
Of this Cynical Human Race.
