Notes About The Poem
I have attempted to create a Cowboy Rondeau Redouble, keeping it simple to add to my song for Laura Tu Luma's UFO.

A Cowboy Riding the Rondeau Redouble

Ridin' horses in the twilight. 
My fate's to wear starred cowboy hats!
I'm on the road all day-n-night.
Receivin' a bright moonlight bath.

I've been travellin' this long dark path.
Will be ridin' till all's made right.
I've gotta calm the inner wrath.
Ridin' horses in the twilight. 

The sun going down is a sight.
Makes me wanna have a quick chat,
But my horse keeps ridin' with might.
My fate's to wear starred cowboy hats.

Cowboys don't need to carry maps.
They ride on into the black night,
And bathe in moonlight after laps.
I'm on the road all day and night!

Flyin' high on my horse in flight!
If there's a fuss, I'll stop all that.
Riden' high to escape the strife. 
Receivin' a bright starlight bath!

Just thought I saw a blue bobcat!
But ain't no cause to feel no fright.
Cause this is my true habitat!
And I'm lovin' my lucky life!
Ridin' horses is my birthright.

[Chorus]
I'm gonna keep on ridin' on yonder.
Yep! The Grand Canyon's awaitin'....
The cowboy's Rondeau Redouble!
