Men On Horseback
As men on horseback chase their glory,
they slow to cross a peaceful river
each one breathes in outback adventures
surrounded by trees whispering their names
they slow to cross a peaceful river
memories rush in of hunted prey
surrounded by trees whispering their names
their lungs fill with the breath of conquests
memories rush in of hunted prey
each one breathes in outback adventures
their lungs fill with the breath of conquests
as men on horseback chase their glory.
for A Little Bit of Aus...contest
Third place
