I have a feeling taming the wild horse is a metaphor for taming a man. I enjoyed reading this wonderful poem and the entire presentation. I enjoyed both very much. Thank you for sharing.

I like your using of metaphor for the wild sex act. Maybe I read too much into it. YOu are very skillful at writing these poems. I always learnt a lot from you.
Well done.

You are right. I left it up for interpretation.
Thank you very much, Lisa

Comment from RJ Heritage
Perhaps, her own life is reflected in the wild steed and the imagery which this portrays, as she tames the uninhabited "beast." This is a very compelling and graphic piece that is well illustrated and complicated by strong imagery.

Interesting story in your tanka. I feel like there are more overtones intended than the taming of a horse. Perhaps it also talks of the taming of a man in her life.

This is very nicely worried and is beautifully presented. I wish you the very best when I first saw the picture of it. I thought of the story that I read as a child called black beauty. That was the story of a very lovely horse. Patricia.

I could really picture this scene in my mind of the person trying to tame a horse, I loved the line "by the shore at eventide," and then how you ended it as well with, "she held tight to the reign of her life." It felt, to me, as I was reading, that this character is really, at this moment, struggling to hold onto her life, and that they are just holding on. An excellent piece.
