The James Gang - Wordslingers

High noon beckons
For this trio of men
With a flick of the wrist
And the write of their pen
 
Words transcend from thoughts to paper
Like a delicate cut, from the best draper
Images flow and picture our sight
These three Amigos, and their literal writes
 
Wordslingers they are 
As their poems unfurl
The might of nature
The love of a girl
 
Peranteau in verse, word wise and free
Goff in the mix, with his poetry
Fraser's pen follows, our History
 
Once again to the nib of my pen
This Tallahassee Lassie prompts me again
The James Gang, and their abundance of words
Held in their hands, like knights with their swords
 
We get stronger each day, not a bullet in site
Three Amigo's with a pen for their write
Inspirational to me, is Lady Carolyn
For in my heart, she will always be in
