' It Was a Cowboy Knight ... ' (Cowboy Poem # 5)

I Saw The Tall, Lone-Star Walk in the Café-Bar With Silver, Jingling Spurs … I Knew, What They Were … … with Boots, Bluejeans and The Chaps and Big-Belt-Buckle, Above His Lap and The Hung-Low-Brim, Cowboy Hat (just a new type of Visored-Helmet) Heard that Gentlemanly Courtesy ‘Mam’ … That’s Just Chivalry And Lasso … instead of a Lance … but same Skill … Same Bold Stance His Armor’s, that Shiny Truck (yeah, They Do Love Their Pick-Ups!) But, Can Still Ride A Steed Whenever, They Feel The Need So, I Know, That’s Not Just A ‘Mister’ ‘ That ’ … Is A Dad-Gum’ ‘ Sir ’ Maybe Even A Champion For Right After All … It Was A Cowboy – Knight …

Chivalry isn't dead, it lives on the heart of the cowboy and the poet. Great poem! ~Trudy~
