WELL DONE! Poetry ALL THE LOVELY CREATURES by Eileen Coe

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.
