On Hooves of Frost
In Dawn's Embrace, We Ride

In dawn's embrace, on hooves of frost, we ride.
Through winter's breath, where silver branches gleam,
A dance with shadows on the snow-clad tide.
***
The crisp exhale of morning air does guide.
As steeds prance on, beneath the sun's first beam
In dawn's embrace, on hooves of frost, we ride.
***
Beneath a sky where azure hues reside
Our spirits soar, like echoes of a dream
A dance with shadows on the snow-clad tide.
***
The world unfolds, a canvas far and wide.
Our hearts entwined with every rhythmic scheme.
In dawn's embrace, on hooves of frost, we ride.
***
The silence speaks, our joy we cannot hide.
On winding trails, where memories redeem
A dance with shadows on the snow-clad tide.
***
With every stride, a tale of freedom's pride
A bond unbroken, as the seasons teem.
In dawn's embrace, on hooves of frost, we ride.
A dance with shadows on the snow-clad tide.

Congrats! The repeated lines and meter worked so well with your topic! It reminded me of rhythmic hooves in snow.
