Notes About The Poem

Silhouette of a cowboy riding a horse roping a calf.

Lariat Cowboy--

Lariat light rope hemp leather corded twined My mission here on the parried to unwind In my strength I shoot my shot I let go lasso catch tether livestock Running noose circles the neck I am the long arm of the law I'll rope the moon, the sun, the stars And ranger and ranger or stranger I confess I'll address the Getty Ap horse, gonna rope me Buttercup, Clarabelle, Molly, Rosie, Gertie, Henrietta, Nellie and Moo I'm a Lariat Cowboy YaHoo-
