The Shadow Hamilton Contest

Not for The Howdy Partner Contest




How many times, have you found,

yourself, walking down the street

Stetson on your head

and cowhide on your feet

Trying to rustle up

a verse, that seems the best

For The Shadow Hamilton

Poetry contest 



Now, I started drinkin' whiskey  

and scratching my blue jeans

But I can't think of anything

that's worth a hill of beans

It's got to be a good one

better than the rest

to win, Shadow Hamilton's

Poetry contest



I thought I'd start out writing 

'bout a horse and dusty trails

Train robbing, riding hard

And 'bout that time in jail

But I have to tell ya'll

This cowboy's kinda stressed

Over Shadow, Hamilton's

Poetry contest.......................Heee yaaaa !

Thanks Olive, I was just thinking, there is still time, maybe rewrite your poem with the new title in mine, you're almost there, but what would you add to your Dream Cowboy just to punch it up a bit !

I didn't summit this one, Richard, so although I might be riding, i don't think it's going to be up any hills. lol

Thank you Joyce, No matter how many times I proof read, there is always one more mis-spelled word
