Her name was Starlight. Her original name was Sugar Bars. She was a registered Quarter horse and an ex-race horse. I renamed her Starlight because of the markings on her forehead. She was my friend and companion growing up.
I used to go out for night rides. (My parents were clueless, they never knew.) We would go out about 11:00 p.m. After about an hour we would come back. There was a route we would take. When we reached a certain spot I would let the reins loose and she would take off at a full gallop. We went up a hill, down a steep grade into a canyon, through the canyon and up the other side. This was a night, at a full gallop and bareback. I think my Guardian Angel went on strike, because she was kicked by another horse which cracked her knee cap. That put an end to our night rides.
She was sold when I went to college. Unless horses live for fifty years she is waiting for me. I told Jesus, that if he is nice to her, he could ride her. I miss her.
