A New Year at Meadowview
We thank the year behind us
For early mornings, tired hands,
For hoofbeats in the quiet dawn
And lessons we didn’t plan.
We thank the people who stood close by,
With steady hearts and open hands,
Who helped us rise, and walked beside,
Who truly helped us understand.
For horses who carried our worries,
For rides that taught us to wait,
For trust built slow and steady
And patience learned at the gate.
For early starts and long days,
For laughs that showed up late,
For learning as we went along
And figuring things out halfway.
We thank our family and our friends,
Who stood through dust and rain,
Who cheered us to small victories
And helped us rise again.
Now a new year opens softly,
Like a stall at morning light—
Full of hope, familiar heartbeats,
And dreams ready to take flight.
With gratitude in our footsteps
And courage in our reins,
We step ahead together,
Where love and horses reign.
With thanks for all that brought us here,
And hope for all that’s yet to be,
We welcome in the coming year
With love, and quiet certainty.
Eileen, Wallace and Ingrid
