Get a Rope

Gun slinger
    Matt Zinger

Dressed in black
     Didn't come back

High Noon
    Was Doomed

Quick Draw
      McGraw

Got A Rope
   Hung that dope

Undertaker Called
    Dead Body Hauled

Poured the whisky
     From Junction 60

Dead Man's Trail
  Where slingers failed

As to your blog comment, rhyming couplets are fine!! Several have been entered in this genre and make good use of the rhyme form. Love, Carolyn

You must have been watching the same Westerns that I did. Good one. Dan

Oh, I like the quick-draw pace in this witty write, Katherine. Good luck in Deborah's contest. Great rhyme and clever form here, too! Love, Carolyn
