' Cowboy Portrait ... ' (Cowboy Poem # 8)

I Drew A Portrait of A Cowboy With Bronco Jumping to the Sun The Sunlight, was Both His Halo And Sunrays, His Blazing Gun … As He Rode High, Against Blue Sky And Came Down, to Earth-Dirt-Brown He Hung Onto That Saddle Horn And Sat It Like A Crown A Cowboy Hat, Was Silhouette With Its Studded, Silver-Band Also, On His Chaps, and Spurs And Spanish Leather, Gloved Hands His Jaw, Was Set, in Steel A Strong, Granite Profile Of Determination, Skill and Handsomeness And Hard, Big-Country Style … and I Love That Portrait of A Cowboy Getting Bronchoed Up In The Sun Seeing Sun and Sky, and A Wild Stallion Try To Buck That Son – Of – A – Gun !
