Spanish Mustangs

It was women and children

that helped to protect

the wild Spanish Mustangs

the great disconnect

Velma and Dawn

who took up the fight

Against the inhumanity

it wasn’t right

their wildness was beautiful

But sadly man showed

his evil his cruelty

so much blood flowed

until Velma got wind

and fought for them, she

known as “Wild Horse Annie”

and her legacy

stopping the aircraft

the big trucks that chased

the murder of wild horses

it was her, who faced

the men and their cruelty

she did them proud

she cared and she shared

And she dared,  a great cloud

Of true positivity

covered her tracks

the BLM was formed

despite the attacks

these wonderful horses

Their  wildness their fire

survivors belonging

their nobleness higher

than so many others

muscled and strong

an unbroken line

their lineage long

a great state of wonder

and much admiration

followers loved them

across the nation

enigmatic and puzzling

Characterful

full of mystique and magic

a pull

respectability applause and acclaim

Intrepid and bold

as wild as a flame

kicking the dust

the pluck and the grace

such super stallions

who run at a pace

with all the conviction

and confidence, they

are content with their lot

at the end of the day
