Died 2003 at Eye of the Storm
Magic still exists - in a garden at a farm - and in our hearts
- at peace forever. We held this little pony in our arms, we cared
for her, we tried to fix her, but we could not.
Magic was too broken. Her tiny shoulder had been smashed in an
accident and she had been left to heal on her own. We found Magic
too late. What we could do was provide comfort, care and love to
Magic before the best veterinarians and a master farrier confirmed
what we suspected in our hearts. Her body could not be repaired.
She dropped ever so lightly into our arms as the veterinarian administered
the medication that took her pain away forever. She was so tiny,
so sweet, so brave and now in peace.
In his book, Le Petit Prince, Antoine De Saint-Exupery wrote: "Here
is my secret. It's quite simple: One sees clearly only with the
heart. Anything else essential is invisible to the eyes." Many
wonderful people saw clearly with their hearts that day and one
magical spirit was set free of her little wounded body surrounded
in love.
