Free as the wind  by Keely & Bicentianel age 13

I am free,
Free as the wind that blows through the valley,
And as the eagle that soars on the wind.
I was made to race the wind,
Eat the grass,
Drink from the river,
and be free.
No one can capture me,
I'm free.
You can chase,
You can hunt,
But you can not catch me,
I'm free.
I am leader of a herd,
I have stolen your mares,
But you will never get them back,
for they are free!
Like me.
And run like the wind on a thousand hills,
I clamor on the rock mountains,
I graze with the deer of the forest.
I race the eagle,
I battle the puma and grizzly.
I'm free!
