Three Chords And Her Truth

(Entered in Line Gauthier Contest, BiteSize Contest No 103, Deadline April 2025)

six string honesty,
three chords of country guitar,
this microphone's hers.

Corn Dogs and Ice Cream Cones a song

It's rare that most would call me a hot head
I am usually the coolest cucumber instead
I have no tells, so their heads don't swell
and I don't get entangled to soon

But there is this tall lanky guy you see
who plays a mean bluegrass guitar so sweet!
and he's turned me on my head
my tongue lolling out the

Country Music Is On

Chorus:
I'm a country man in a lonely home,
Me, myself and I who know road?
Well, it's a deep tought nobody knows,
So I keep it alone,
For the night surley got to show....
Ooh...

Chorus:
I'm a country man in a lonely home,
Me, myself and I who know road?
Well, it's a deep tought nobody knows,
So I keep it alone,
For the night

Country Music

By the big red barn with the corn comin’ up,
By the big red barn with the corn comin’ up,
I’ll be smilin’ like an actor 
As I climb down off the tractor
By the big red barn with the corn comin’ up.

Gonna greet my gal with a kiss and a hug,
Gonna greet my gal with a kiss

Country Music

Chants echoing home bliss
Celestial songs of heart
Commending folks’ good times
Clear through guitar rhythm
Celebrating triumph
Clarion for me to hum:
“Cordillera*, you're God**-blest.” 

*My home region in our country
**Psalm 47:5 God is gone up with a shout, The Lord with the sound of a trumpet.

Country music brings me

Indestructible, For Johnny Cash

Indestructible, for Johnny Cash
by Michael R. Burch

What is a mountain, but stone?
Or a spire, but a trinket of steel?
Johnny Cash is gone,
black from his hair to his bootheels.

Can a man out-endure mountains’ stone
if his songs lift us closer to heaven?
Can the steel in his voice vibrate on
till his words are our manna and leaven?

Then sing,

Hillbilly Heart

The city makes my heart beat change
To a speed I can't endure
I start to sweat and I can't breathe
To me there only is one cure

I have to leave the city life
Leave the commotion far behind
I've got to hit the country
For that is where I'll find

I have got a hillbilly heart
It's beats in banjo time
I have

I Grew Up On Country Music

I Grew Up on Country Music
When Rock and Roll was king
My friends all liked the Beatles
But, that was not my thing
I liked to hear the fiddle
To hear the joy burst from the strings
I Grew Up on Country Music
When Rock and Roll was king

I remember me and Grandad
Listening to the radio
We would listen to the Opry
While

No More Country Music

WAYLON, WILLIE, MINNIE, LORETTA, AND --KEITH RICHARDS???
     (AIN'T NO COUNTRY MUSIC ANYMORE)

There ain't no country music in this town.
Cain't go out drinkin whisky all night long.

There ain't no country music in this town.

I heard Keith Richards singing Willie's song.
That's why country's gone so goddam

Favorite Country Music

I know that The violence and hate in this world is real and we shouldn't have to feel afraid when we go
to hear the stumming of a gutiar at a concert, or the southern twain of our favorit country music star, or jamming to it in our ol' car driving down the highway, or where

The Country Music Hall of Fame

A country music fan is not
A title I would claim
And yet today I visited
Its well-known Hall of Fame.

For here I am in Nashville,
In the south and far from home,
But I believe in following
That adage, "When in Rome..."

Surprisingly, I much enjoyed
The various displays.
The folks that made it happen sure
Deserve a lot of praise.

Though lots of boots,

COUNTRY MUSIC

I was ravaged today
by

three consecutive country songs 
on the radio while driving
each moaning the lyrics  
". . daddy's pickup truck"
and "the Georgia mud"
while whining that
"she was leavin' me!".

God what woman
would not leave if that was
all she ever heard from him
or ANYONE ELSE!

I reckon he lost 
because
the fourth song I heard
had ". . .
