Cowboy Camp Cook

Making biscuits at four A.M., coffee is boiling
                 Fed the cowboys at midnight, they just keep dragging in
          Says that he will sleep when he gets old, at this rate it won't take long

Had to laugh at this witty write, Danny. I can see it vividly through your words. Guess the cowboys don't sleep much, but they need the food to keep going. I've never met an overweight cowboy, so bring on the biscuits! Love, Carolyn

That is right one cannot burn the candle at both ends and get by with it for long. Keep writing. Like the presentation of the idea. Sara
