"jingle Bells...Eastwood Tales"

3-3-5-7-7-1

Christmas shop..Till you drop..
Every which way but loose..
For some rawhide, Wishbone fried..
Gil Favor big on flavor..
Some!
 
Jo se Wells…Eastwood Tales..
As I knew he would..
Clint Eastwood, did very good..
Being so well on his…way..
Act!

Cattle drive…Eastwood drove..
From Rawhide he came..
Droving them doggies rolling..
Improving his western…game..
Bang!

Lee Van Cleef…Just beneath..
The Clint Eastwood leaf..
Did some neat trick in Clint’s flicks..
For just a few dollars…more..
Sing!

Spaghetti…Confetti..
Italian a..
A very long shot movies we got..
Producers had little hope..
Yang!

But did soap…they did rope..
Block busted some dopes..
Mean machine like Steve McQueen..
One Eastwood movie with Sheen..
Yen!

One big star…Clint you're made..
Riding in your cade..
Now it is you  who controls..
Fans seek your movies in…rows..
End!

this looks like it was for a contest or something. A very fun project and you had me remembering those old "spegetti westerns" and that handsome Clint (he still isn't so bad!) thanks for reading Solacing. Luv, andrea

Got my attention because it is somewhat different from what you usually do. Clint has starred in some good movies. Keep the magical pen flowing. Sara

John, Very witty creative fun read. I admire Clint Eastwood he seems to be a man of strong charactor. He should have won a oscar for his role in Grand Torino. I thought it was one of his best films. He cowrote it too. Says a lot...Thanks for sharing. Good luck in contest, best wishes! Love Light Patty

Clever and very entertaining, Moses! Clint has long been one of my idols. Many feel he was snubbed last year when he didn't get an Oscar nomination for Gran Torino, an incredible movie speculated to be his last acting performance. This year he directed "The Blind Side" and I'm hoping this awesome movie will reap Oscars for Eastwood and Bullock! This is an incredible write for Deborah's contest and I wish you success. Love, Carolyn
