A Horse with No Name's Enduring Ride
From desert winds to ocean spray,
A harmony that lit the way.
Three voices blended soft and clear,
A sound that soothed the listening ear.
Dewey Bunnell with words that flowed,
Of horses wild and paths untrod.
His melodies, a gentle breeze,
Rustling through the sunlit trees.
Gerry Beckley with chords so bright,
That painted landscapes in the light.
His soaring vocals pure and true,
Reflecting...

Distant Cousins
called Black Betty
she’s graceful
a rare beauty
still, quite a handful
she’s had her share
of adventure
and misadventure

Horse QuestionIf I lead, will you follow
far away, on hill and hollow,
racing over field and stream,
galloping fast to catch a dream,
going to find the gold-green hay,
grazing in the sun all day?...

Why the horse danceDo you remember,
The grand horse carousel?
Pirouetting upon their endless meridian,
O! How they dance delightfully, with out care.
I know you remember!
But all this poor old man can recall,
Are the coins infiltrating,
Pushed by small finger, and joyous smiles.
Then the lights overhead,
Followed by the grand gallop chomatique!
How I remember?
These stallions, they dance for wealth,
For life,
For aspiration,
For...

Nailed ItIn a kingdom called Vividale, long ago, lived a loyal knight, Sir Andrew,
Famed for turning the tide in battles, and none of the tales were untrue!
Intelligent and a natural leader, Sir Andrew's fast horse was called Fury.
Together, they were an incredible duo, like whipped cream, with a cherry.
The king was very pleased, since the kingdom...

Horse Color Cannot Be IgnoredHorse Color Cannot Be Ignored
Intentions, cryptic, in pockets.
Fiery darts lampooned in sockets.
The bow is a clue; not a sword.
Horse color cannot be ignored.
Wielding war’s arms, removing peace,
Men turn on each other, decrease.
Burning core, where anger is stored -
Horse color cannot be ignored.
Black as soot; rider holds grub scales
In hand; deprivation prevails.
Looking at the day prices...

The RideShe rode unsaddled on the mighty horse.
Her hazel hair flew haphazardly and coarse.
They crossed the rippling river, laughing with flair.
They rode to the ranch, her husband waited there.
Yet she needed his love and climbed quickly upstairs.

The Woman She Has BecomeShe speaks of a white horse,
Its rider clad in majesty, riding toward her,
He suddenly disappears as he approaches,
Her face glows whenever she talks about it.
She describes a bright light,
Claiming it comes to her room in the tranquil midnight,
Suddenly, white birds fly out of the light,
And...
