White Horses.............

We call them White Horses..............

You see them in the oceans and I see them in Lake Michigan.

The crests of waves that have wind blown manes and look like horses arising from the waves................. Poseidon was also the creator of horses, creating them out of the breaking waves when challenged to make a beautiful land animal.

They race to the shore but never set foot on land, forever racing forwards manes blowing and their voices shrieking in the winds that form them..........they are beautiful mysterious and wild.

Some pictures capture the magic like the very first one and this one (above) is one of my favourites.

I love it when you see the waves where the wind blows the crests off into the air and it does not take much imagination to see the horses running towards us.

Fantastic comparisons! I love to watch the ocean in the wintertime especially.

They are beautiful, the sea is great to sit and watch you can dream along with it, in summer in winter just too cold.

I've never heard the comparison of the waves to horses and their manes in the wind. But, now I'll think of this any time that I am allowed to enjoy the ocean again. Living in Tennesse, that doesn't happen often. But, hopefully again someday soon. Enjoyed this post so much and Im now following you HERE too.
