Thanks to my beta Nevar23.


Two five year old boys, cute and bright
They each live in their own world, as they know it quite right.
Alike though not identical, the same genes they maintain
Time seems to repeat itself, over and over again.

The one of an era many men have forgotten
The feats memorable, but the bones now lay rotten.
Back then and once the boy got a gift
It was a brown pony, sturdy but swift.

Stubborn and devious, yet so friendly and strong
Blessed with a heavy coat and thick mane, grown very long.
'The boy and the beast' as they were well known at the village
Searching for freedom on journeys close to the edge.

The animal taught lessons of compassion and respect
The stars didn't even matter, for their life was perfect.
Together they rode to where the wind they might take
The young one wished there would never be a break.

One millennium later, his eyes bright with joy
There waits a present for the second boy.
The unwrapping kid left the box unconcealed
Nothing less than a deep red tricycle was revealed.

Promptly trying and on was the race
Flying along at a breakneck pace!
Through the gate, every corner with ease
He never feared to skin his knees.

Rushing, swerving, speeding, steering,
Nothing but the wind could stop him.
Would his greatest passion in the end
Tragic destruction comprehend?

Two hearts, two souls, two memories
One dream became reality.
Though fate would catch up with them one day
Nobody ever could take their past away.
