She cantered steadily through the field, feeling each hoof beat resonating through to her heart. She loved riding in the field, feeling the air rush through her hair and the grass whip by her feet.

She leaned forward and gave her horse an affectionate pat on the neck. He neighed in response; he knew just what to do.

He let out a triumphant whinny before plunging forward, lengthening his stride.

She leaned back, flinging her arms out. She felt like she was soaring, a feeling so glorious and heavenly that she never wanted it to end.

But, as her horse slowed, the air softened. She opened her eyes and let out a deep sigh.

She leaned forward and whispered in her horse’s ear, “Once more.”

The horse nickered. He was ready.

He sped up again, approaching a gallop. His hooves thumped rhythmically over the soft dirt, matching the beating of her heart.

She closed her eyes, letting out a contented sigh.

And when she opened them again, she was astride a magnificent pegasus.

Final Comments: This music was incredible. I highly recommend giving it a listen. It gave me such a clear image and, although I honestly don’t think I did a very good job at describing it, I still enjoyed just closing my eyes and picturing the moment.
