Moment in time-Sonshine Ranch

Horse riding
The smooth saddle was sticking to me as I nervously leapt over onto my horses back. The lady pulled the rope open and Dot.com shot out like a flash. As I got a strong grip of the reins there was a rush everywhere inside of me. I watched the track in fright. Large fierce cones were knocked over by my scared feet. Nervous sweat came drifting down my face and into my mouth. I said to myself you’ll be ok.
As I slightly looked down I felt like I was on a flying Pegasus in the sky a thousand meters high. I was really scared when we went through the poles; I thought his huge strong legs were going to stand on the poles. There was a shivering feeling in my spine as his hooves slowly went klippity, klop, klippity, klop.I went in and out through the course with a small amount of breath left in me. I felt like a sleepy clown trying not to laugh all of the energy out of me.
Ha ha ha, I said to myself. As I slowly stumbled off with a sleepy sigh. I was glad to meet the ground again. I sat down with a thud but I suddenly heard there was more. “More!” I said with a groan.
