The beautiful black stallion lived on a ranch by the mountains 
He was kept in a stable or corral when not being taken out for a ride by his owners 
His coat was a thick black color like velvet
It shimmered in the sun
His mane was long and majestic 
His face was kind with big brown eyes
When he ran his tail would bounce some from the movement 
He was majestic 
Every day he was taken out of the stable to the corral to feed and exercise 
He would look beyond the fence towards the green pastures and beyond with longing
He wanted to be free
He felt like he was in a cage 
Each day as he went through his routine running around the corral he imagined jumping over the fence and running free
He would even dream of it
One day he decided he couldn’t stay any longer and would have to try and escape 
He felt like he so trapped 
He was meant to run
He practiced running around and around in the corral going faster each time building up his strength 
One night as he went to bed he decided the next day when no one was watching he would free himself 
The next morning when he was put out into the corral he waited until everyone left
He then backed up by the fence and started running as fast as he could 
His hooves hitting the ground hard with all his strength 
He then jumped the fence and kept running towards the open range and mountains 
Other horses saw him in the distance and joined him
They all ran fast and hard just for the joy of it
He was so happy 
He was out of the cage 
He was free
