X -- QS. X . L fi A CREATURE OF GOD In my opinion, one of the most beautiful creatures that God has cre- ated takes form in the horse. Unaltered by what man prefers in him, he re- sembles strength, majesty, and intelligence, the latter of which many people decidedly do not realize. Some people would rather watch a horse in action, guided by a rider. If one has ever experienced the feeling of mastering a horse, thinking of the more simple forms of mastery, he can fully appreciate the excellent teamwork and coordination of a skillful rider and a well trained horse. However, in my mind I would much prefer to watch a horse enjoying freedom. This creature, flying along at a gallop, resembles beauty which is to me unsurpassed. Mane and tail flying in the wind, neck proudly arched, and slender but strong legs pounding over the ground, eating it up mile by mile. XVhen this flighty creature comes to a stop he seems to survey the world as his own, with his head held high, nos- trils dilated, and eyes flashing, he seems to be saying - I am king, and all others must bow down before me. He is magnificant, proud, and gentle all at one time. He can also be dis- tainful of his fellow creatures and even of humans. He seems to me a creature of God, - unequalled by mortals.
