Sitting on a wooden fence.
A large meadow in front,
And a small woods behind me.
Rolling hills in the distance.
Bright green grass
And wildflowers of all colors
Cover the meadow.
A sound much like thunder
Grows louder as it comes nearer.
A herd of horses gallops past
In a mix of black, gray, roan, palamino, appaloosa, and bay.
They stop to graze
Not very far away.
Newborn foals race and jump and play.
The lead stallion stands guard,
Alert and catious for any danger nearby.
I watch for some time,
Then they start running again.
I wish I could run with them
And be like they are.
Wild and free.
