The Horse In The Stars

The White Horse Of Chalk On Uffington Hill

Seen Starlit, Reflected In The Dark Night

She Is Dancing Among The Shining Stars

Mystically Entrancing With Her Show

πŸŒŸπŸŽπŸ¦„πŸŽπŸŒŸ

On Uffington Hill, See Constelations

This Mystical Horse, A Visual Thrill

A Place Of Magic, Of Strange Chants And Spells

A Horse So Bright With A Mystical Glow

πŸŒŸπŸŽπŸ¦„πŸŽπŸŒŸ

She's Bathing Uffington Hill In Her Light

All Stand Below, They Are Transfixed With Awe

Watching The Sky Above This Magic Place

Uffington Horse Swims With The Starlight Flow

πŸŒŸπŸŽπŸ¦„πŸŽπŸŒŸ

Now Go To Uffington, See Her You Will

This Resplendent Equine Beautiful Sight
