Wild Horses? Horses are ever wild.

We now raise our glasses to horses:

Horses, Horses

Horses are great regal creatures,
oft tall, well-muscled, and fine.
They teach us as if they were teachers,
while we just to teaching incline.

But they sometimes do seem so obtuse,
take an angle that cannot be right,
till we set our good horse sense in use
and recall not with horses to fight.

Remember. Horses are always right.

Well, I just saw (and reviewed) a movie called "The Mustang," which is about a convict who gets involved with a horse-training program in his prison, allowing him to befriend a wild mustang. After watching that film, I'd say that this poem rings true.

My high school math teacher was a horsemen, and he had a high regard for the intelligence of horses. He also once remarked that horses seem to enjoy working with humans.
