The Spirit of the Wild
By: Night Storm
Age: 11

A stallion,
Blacker than the night,
Canters across the open plains,
Kicking up dust behind his strong hooves.

A palomino follows,
Her golden coat shimmering in the sun,
Radiating of grace and beauty.

Their band trails after,
A cloud of surging bodies,
Strong muscles rippling beneath shining hides.

This herd,
They hold the spirit of fire,
The spirit of freedom,
The spirit of the wild,
As they run with the wind.
