Your incredible beauty and talent were only the beginning.
You were the kindest horse I've ever known.
An incredible initial recovery from your injury
Had extinguished all doubts about a positive outcome.
Your courage throughout the year did not waiver.
All this making your loss even more devastating
But, somehow, you left behind a miracle;
A filly born between your two catastrophic leg fractures
Beautiful and serene, bearing an uncanny resemblance to you.
You will live on through her, "Rapture's Moonlight Legacy"
Named in your memory
But, in every crowd of horses I still look for you
Unable to accept that you are gone.
You will always be irreplaceable in my heart.
