Mares' Tails - Rev. #1

[John]

Many thanks for your helpful comments, peeps.

@just mercedes - done a lot of riding and just love the smell of horses. Felt I had to make reference in the poem.

@billy - the cloud formations - streaks - are typified by a flicked-up end or hook, hence the allusion to a beckoning finger to mount and ride with an invisible herd. And Andalusians are noted for their long white tails (increasingly being bred in): that's why I mentioned that breed.

Thanks again for the comments. I'll put them to good use.
