Forever Wild, Forever Free
Horses gallop across the sand
Beside the sea, a mighty band.
They toss their heads, a noble race
Contentment flashes across the lead stallions face.
He's led his mares far and wide
Looking for a place to hide
From the men that wish to bring
The wild horses to a bloody ending.
Where they once ran wild and free
Far from mans cruel butchery
They now are hunted by the pound,
turned into food for a hungry hound.
But for a little while at least
This small herd can escape the beast
That yearns desperately to hear
A dying horses final squeal.
On this land they hope to roam,
To make this sandy beach their home.
For these children of Nature shall be
Forever wild, forever free.
