"Don't cry for the horses that life has set free. A million white horses forever to be. Don't cry for the horses now in God's hands. As they prance and they dance in a heavenly band. They're ours as a gift but never to keep. As they close their eyes forever to sleep. Their spirits unbound. On silver wings they fly. A million white horses against the blue sky. Look up into heaven you'll see them above. The horses we lost, the horses we loved. Manes and tails flowing they gallop through time. They never were yours. They never were mine. Don't cry for the horses. They'll be back someday. When our time has come they will show us the way. Do you hear that soft nicker close to your ear? Don't cry for the horses, love the ones that are here."  Brenda Riley Seymore
