The Herd Of Heroes

I was at a seminar last weekend where we were given the assignment to draw an image of what you dreamed of being when you were a child. Well, I can't draw worth a darn. Guess what I did instead?

I wanted to be a horse of the Free Herd.
We'd have adventures on the plains--
escape, rescue, romance.
We fled from wolves and found refuge among the cliffs
and we rolled rocks down on their heads!
We were the Herd of Heroes.
