Others that are no longer with us:
Axel was born on March 12, 2005. He was the biggest baby ever born at Moonstruck and he was so sweet. A terrible accident snatched him away from us when he was barely three weeks old. Even though he'd only been with us for these few short weeks, he was loved and cherished like all the other four-legged family. His leaving us was a sad and tragic day. This inspired a poem by my fellow horse-lover, Nancy Connolly, below:
Your little champion, took a different path
To shine in the spotlight,
To be a regal sight.
Unfortunately for us, it’s not down here
But in a field filled with joy,
With your priceless little boy.
We love them with our heart and soul
Whether here a day, or weeks,
Perfection for them we seek.
We do everything we can to do it right
He knew here you cared,
Hugs with him you shared.
Look to the sky, in each cloud he is there
Running, neighing and playing,
Don’t worry Mom, to you he is saying!
