Wanting more than the wind blowing her hair, she lifts a small hand to catch it as she runs barefoot on the beach. A red pail is held firmly against her, as she has been shell collecting. Plymouth, MA, yesterday.
“Born free, as FREE AS THE WIND BLOWS
As free as the grass grows
Born free to follow your heart
“Live free and beauty surrounds you
The world still astounds you
Each time you look at a star
“Stay free, where no walls divide you
You're free as the roaring tide
So there's no need to hide”
-“Born Free”, Words by Don Black; Music by John Barry
