Hanging on my wall
the map we used to lean against
on the floor mattress at Huron View
bodies of water we were
pressed against edges of
MichiganSuperiorStClairHuronErie
Eerie
how we were bodies of water,too
but mobile
traversed
across bridges to bays an
estuary
sounds like nest but
not so much like home
although you are
but now- flowing backwards from the mouth to the source
we travel gaily with this weight
we carry with us all
canteens of fresh water gasping for air
and coming out on the surface filled with
new images
what we look like underwater
what you look like beside it
how we feel
when we are
home.
About Me
- Rachel Colette K.C.
- I knew since I was a tiny girl that I wanted to write and train horses. I am very lucky and I had the confidence and support to do exactly what I wanted. For 20 years I have worked with horses and riders of all types and disciplines and from all over the world. These experiences have been precious to me and I am now enjoying writing and ruminating on all of the unique and wonderful memories. Some highlights in my horse career have been founding Oxbow Horse Farms with partners who became best friends, directing Equilibrium Horse Center and learning the true classical way to perfect horsemanship, and starting my own simple small training school called Adagio Dressage. These days I spend my time helping horsemen and parrot owners on a voluntary basis with any training, health, or nutritional guidance, and write and read from home. It's a damn good life.
