James Peranteau Poet Light Verse

Carolyn's Ranch

.


     One night on Carolyn's Ranch
          under the star lit skies
     whilst the breeze played with 
                 her tresses
   and mine eyne roved hern pretty
 
           there were no horses
                 nor saloons
                      yet
            one could hear the
                 ricocheting
             from left to right
            This had to be the 
               'James Gang'

                       for
                  the words
                 they riddled
                  they rang
                they cracked
   
                  Since that 
                 star lit night
                    on the 
            Devonshire Ranch
                looking back
      
                      yep
          



Touche’ Carolyn...mi amiga

L'Nass Shango June 16, 2009 at 9:28 PM Man, we got a James gang on soup ... and no dandy sheriff ... what is poor Carolyn to do ... join them like that Patty Hearst ... and then for the ware she would be no worse ... rounding up outlaws with her wisdom of gold.

Carolyn Devonshire June 8, 2009 at 4:39 PM BTW, I want to thank you again for being such a great friend! Love, Carolyn

Carolyn Devonshire June 8, 2009 at 4:37 PM Oh, to see the James Gang ride up to my ranch! 'Twould be a dream come true, James. Once we let the gang loose, who knows where they'll go next? Bravo!
