The Daily Haiku – 4th Weekly Theme, Celebrations.

Celebration – Spanish Style

We mount up and ride

through the village, dressed as

camperos – gypsies.

************

Women in gypsy

dresses, men with sombreros.

They ride one-handed

************

They guided the horse on

the rein; riding long in the

iron stirrups, no crops.

************

Not needed, the horses

are well-trained; they know where

they are going to.

************

They arrive at a

field with marquis, water for

horses, food for us.

************

We eat paella,

drink wine and sangria,

ride home in twilight.
