WELL DONE! Poetry ALL THE LOVELY CREATURES by Eileen Coe
When God created man
He omitted the most important part
He left out the animal heart
To gaze into an animal’s eyes
Is to hold the depth of life’s mystery
To observe all that we can only ever dream
to see
The ego of man could never handle the animal heart
It’s beyond all understanding
All God’s lovely creatures are far
from our commanding
Oh to have a piece of the animal heart!
How lovely it would be
To be a very small part
Of all the lovely creatures
Eileen Coe is a lifelong animal lover and true animal advocate.
Eileen realized her dream of working with horses after she retired from the corporate world of Ophthalmic Medicine, in 2008. She then became a certified Equine Acupressure Practitioner, through the Tallgrass Animal Acupressure Institute. Eileen also received her PATH certification as a therapeutic riding instructor. She worked with children and adults with special needs, helping them benefit from the power of the horse. Eileen now resides in the beautiful foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in Western North Carolina. She lives with her husband, Rob, horses, dogs and one cantankerous cat. There are also numerous wild critters that love to visit! After visiting areas where the wild horses roam, Eileen hopes to bring awareness to their plight to live their lives wild and free.
