Best Zack Poems

Precious little Zack
Sweet, innocent and pure
Went through this lifetime
For only a few short years

I missed the opportunity of
His last years of development
But my memories stay filled
Of the younger days he spent

Even with disabilities
Born to this child
He always gave his cute
Crooked little smile

When Zack was a...

THE LOST SOULS SALOON  Page 7

I pushed aside the swinging doors
And stepped out on the street
My poor horse stood, alone all night
without a thing to eat

I led him by the reins 
As we turned to make our way
In hopes to find some oats
Or perhaps...

The continuing saga of Zack Waverly


The mare was to far gone
and I had to put her down
There was nothing I could do
To help her make her back to town
When things have come to this
Life seems barely worth a...

While sliding off my horse

Not a soul could be found

As I paused for a moment

to take a look around

The Dawn was growing nearer
As the Sun reached for the sky
I put my hat and boots on 
Strapped my gun against my thigh
As I stepped back through the door
To make my way down to the bar
With my fingers in the pocket
Of...

With a wave of her hand
The cowhands all dispersed
Then she spoke to me some words
I'm sure were well rehearsed  
She leaned a little forward, 
placed her palm 'long side my cheek
Said, "I could be the one,
if it's companionship...

The Lost Souls Saloon


The oil lamp was dimmed
as the light defined her face
and it made the room a fire
silhouetting our embrace
With her arms around my neck
and her legs around my waist
Her lips became more supple 
while her eyes drew more debased 
I was somewhere, caught...

As the Doc removed the scarf 
that was 'round the Sheriff's neck
He did it with great care
That shown a sign if deep respect 

The Sheriff was well liked
and through the years made many friends
So it was understandable
they were shocked to see his end

The Doctor then...

A badge laid there upon the desk
Barely shining thru the dust
and the six gun there beside it
neglected, full of rust

There hadn't been a sheriff here
For days or months nor years
and since that day the sheriff died
The town was gripped by fear

It didn't seem that...

Another voice then raised up
It was the doctor of this town
"I've examined the Sheriff's body
But no bullet wound was found"

"Now gentlemen, I advise you
There is something I suspect 
if you go and hang this stranger
It'll be something you'll regret "

The crowd became solemn
and took...

As I backed stepped to my horse
The towns folk grew around
I drew out my colt
but, someone knocked it to the grown

If you asked me how they did it
I would have to answer "Nope"
But somewhere out of nowhere
They produced a hanging rope

Then many men grabbed...

With the body in the wagon
Me and Doc rode through the town
looking up and down the street
not a soul was left around

The Doc gave out a chuckle
"These superstitious fools
They might as well pull this wagon
they're as bright as this old mule"

We reached the edge...

Still I couldn't help but wonder 
what the ruckus was about
and I stopped being curious 
when a single shot rang out

I flew through the open door
being fast upon my feet
but only one was left to see
lying still upon the street

I walked toward him with...

The Doc's hand in his pocket
Drew out slow, a hidden gun
and I had to put my hands up
with no time to draw, or run

As he said "you're gonna dig
not just one grave, but let's say two,
and I'll say you just left town
no one hear will...

My hand slipped off my boot
and ran along the ore 
as the sun made all the gold 
glare much brighter than before

The piece that I had palmed
and positioned in my hand
reflected so much Sun
it would blind most any man

With the glare now in his eyes
