Firefly walked over the lush grass. Her cuts stung and a sappy tree branch whipped her side. A cool breeze came in. Firefly had travelled far from the rugged mountains. She had been gone for a long time. As the sun started to set Firefly walked over a rise to see a lush field. She stopped and watched two other horses graze beside each other. The one roughed up stallion looked familiar. to her. The mare though was not. Firefly stayed and watched before she moved forwards. She flicked a bug from her haunches and cantered down the hill. The soft grass covered her approach and she waded into the shallow water. The other two had yet to notice her presence. The cool water on her hot legs was well needed. She waded out of the water to chew down the grass around the water edge. The sun had set low into the sky as Firefly eats until her heart's content. She was well hidden under the ridge where a small pond and stream surrounded her. Firefly stood still and watched her surroundings. A small mouse scurried by, A blue jay jumped from tree to tree. The4 popular trees provided shade in the sun and their leaves fell into the water one at a time. THis was a great day for her. A journey that was not done was on hold. She could live here for now and move away in a couple days. She was still too close to the past. The high mountain peaks and she lonely cold nights were still too close for her liking.

Firefly~~~ Wild but not free
