SHINE

Shine was her name.
She wore it well.


Most say she didn't stay long enough, but I know better.
Gramma Annie told me we each come into this world with a certain number of heartbeats.
Use 'em up, she told me when I was almost too young to understand, but now I do: I use them hard and fast. I ride my heart like an untamed filly; a long wild mane circles the sky. 
I carry sugar cubes in my pockets. I paw the earth to know its rumble. xo
