Last spring I wrote a blog about Kapia, a horse in Belgium, who helped me discover hidden and lost emotions within myself. (Lessons from a horse’s heart, June 16th 2009)
A few weeks ago I received a message that Kapia had passed away. Although she touched my life only briefly, Kapia had a profound effect on my growth as a person and I will be forever in debt to her for this reason. Not that she ever expected anything in return, apart from honesty and authenticity.
Horse’s have big hearts as I pointed out in my last blog, but Kapia’s heart was extraordinary – she was a healer of the human heart.
To honor Kapia’s memory, below are two poems I wrote in May of this year, both inspired by this magnificent mare.
The beacon - Inspired by Kapia May 3, 2009
I know
what you are saying.
I can see the words
In those kind eyes
When you look straight
Into my heart
You know my desires
Before I can catch them
You guide my path
Before I can find it
You are the beacon
In the night
Words from a wise horse - Talking to Kapia May 2, 2009
the eternal depth
that is within -
it may seem empty
and deep as a hole
but
the space you see
is not darkness
it is a place to
expand
your Strength
your Power
your Womanhood
Thank you, Kapia. I will never forget.
