Wild Horse Running Free

I did not feel worthy of honouring the great Nelson Mandela with a song, however, while reading his autobiography, "Long Walk to Freedom", the words for this song kept coming to me, relentlessly and chronologically as each chapter of his life was revealed to me in the book. They would not stop, neither would the words get ahead of me till I had finished the lengthy and brilliant book. The last verse literally fell into place as I finished reading the final chapter, and the song was complete. This is my small contribution to fighting racial prejudice and spreading Nelson Mandela's compassion and wisdom. A portion of profits will be donated to Nelson Mandela charities in South Africa.
