Gives me reason to believe
The conveyer of which
Belongs to my soul
Once more
Your heart may stray toward a four-legged friend
Do not fight that natural-born love
That comes with caring for a newfound foal
Oh, for the love of all things pony. Pony baths, pony carousels...there is even a pony movie playing at the theatre. Even pony murals on every available space. And yet, it never seems like too much. I do so love to do a walkabout on this little island of Chincoteague. Life is good.
A flower. There must always be a flower. This flower is dedicated to #WednesdayYellow #ColorChallenge by @Kalemandra, who colors my world, every single day. Even Henry likes yellow flowers and he loves to go back and visit Chincoteague.
The love a girl has for her pony
I beg to differ with anyone
Who doesn't believe
In that magic.

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"

Wow ... what a sublime place, Denise. Dream-like. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful travels with the rest of us:)
Oh girl! Where have you been!? I kept going over to your place and peruse thing and I know you're around because you vote, but since when did you turn into just a curator and a non posting princess?
It is such a picturesque little place and I enjoy going there. It's like stepping into yesteryear and truly I do think that I could live there except that the culture part is missing and much as I love everything about it oh, it's just a visit for me and sometimes it's leaving an extended visit because it is that nice. I love to take you traveling because you're so much fun. Not get back over to your profile and post something. LOL I want to thank you so much for stopping over and say hello and leaving me such a wonderful comment, as usual. Have a brilliant night my dear. I miss seeing you!

Thanks so much, Denise. I plan to post again soon, hopefully within the month. I am working these days on new edits for some books I had published earlier and the second in my novel series Slip Treaders. When I get it all looking sharp, I will be up and running again. I promise.
Oh, that sounds so fun!!! Oh, I will patiently wait, my friend. Some people are worth waiting for.
Takes one to know one:):):)
XOXO

🎁 Hi @arcange! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!Pony up!
Okay, I had to say it, corny as it is. Lovely area. Awesome pics and paintings. I really like the one with the lighthouse in the background.
Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving such a kind comment. Especially since I have been so (read overworked) that I try to push a post out and don't get much chance to read others. And I actually am annoyed at myself for that.
So my sincere apologies that I have been worse than remiss.
But, thank you for not holding that against me and coming here anyway. As always, I wish you a lovely evening!

🎁 Hi @tryskele! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!It actually took place over a week oh, well the walk was one day but I was there for a week doing a pony swim, which is an annual event in this little town, which is actually an island I agree with you! What more could anybody want?
Thank you for stopping over and say hello and leaving me a most wonderful reply. Have a fabulous night.

Wow! This is a magical island where ponies are well looked after and care free! This place is so peaceful and timeless. Life can flow at a sweeter and slower pace!
It’s so nice to go there for rejuvenating energy every year!
It really is nice to have such a picturesque little place where time Stood Still and life flows a more predictable speed. The magic is in the island oh, you are so right!
I do go to the pony swim every year but I have another house that is not too far from there and like to take some time to relax and unwind. Once I do that, all is well but the world once again. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop in and say hello and as always I wish you a most wonderful day!

🎁 Hi @joelai! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!Lots of horses! I love them all and the art work too :)
OpSee that? You are just way too kind! There are lots of horses everywhere you look! This town or this island actually is all about ponies. Right down to the movie theater! And somehow it doesn't feel like Overkill. Thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving your always fun replies.

Thank you for your generosity and encouragement! I hope i get to visit there :)

🎁 Hi @rossfletcher! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!Muchas gracias!
De nada! :)
These are really nice photography in Chincoteague. And last two photos are touching my heart because they love each other such as pony-flower or pony-women. I have enjoyed your pretty travel with pony.
Thank you so much! Chincoteague Island is one of my favorite places to go in this area. I really like the last picture to because it just reminds me how sweet these little ponies are. Thank you so much for taking the time to visit and there's always I wish you a good night. Or a good day. Whichever it is when you see this.

🎁 Hi @kamrunnahar! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!Toy horse riding, nostalgic.....😊
Posted using Partiko Android
Oh yes! The carousel was really fun and they're very popular around here, I'm not sure how they are in your country. Everything is so big back here and it's like stepping into 50 years ago some days, so yes very nostalgic.
Thank you for stopping by and poor the kind comment. I wish you a good day.

🎁 Hi @shuvo35! You have received 0.1 STEEM tip from @dswigle!It looks like such a delightful place to visit i love the carousel and how cool so much there is focused on the pony’s even down to the movie showing and murals
Thanks for sharing such a fun walk and area
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)
Thanks for this great post and being an active member and wonderful guide of @steemusa !tip
Isn't it funny that no matter where you go in this town you will see a pony. I kid you not. There's something comforting about it and then again there's so many of them! I have to say that walking around it never seems like too many.
I had a lot of fun doing this post and I do love the Wednesday walks. So thanks for stopping by and I appreciate the tip!

From your posts about the place it sounds so charming and a place I would love to visit but through your wonderful posts I feel like I have been there already 👍😎👍
Ha!! You just saved yourself a boatload of money! As lovely and nostalgic as this place is, their places to sleep have caught up (price-wise) with the times! :)
Well with retirement approaching any way i can save money is a good thing, I guess once something starts getting popular people and businesses always milk it for as much as they can
It's funny! It has been doing it since 1925 and has always been popular, but, now they are starting to get international attention. And BTW... their accommodations are places like Miss Mollys and other B&B that have been around for decades. Very few real hotels.
I didnt know it had been going for that long, and yes international attention will do that and spike the prices, I think its good there are not the big hotel chains there that could make it worse I suspect
