Prairie Fire

“I don’t splain myself,”
Bill Hickok said
before his Colts went off
A dead man lying
at his feet
—his legend time embossed

A Celebration

New Orleans Saints Win The Superbowl!!



The Saints struck down the Colts
Like a great big lightning bolt
Miami drowned in black and gold
New Orleans won the Superbowl
I send this dedication, a celebration
To all the Who Dat Nation

Spring

Violent walls of black drift across cobalt skies
trees twisted and mangled by turbulent wind
rain in sheets of glass from heavens rush
rivers fill with natures eroding water

In the silent aftermath,
birds sing to a shining sun
colts and calves dance in green pastures
frolicking to the new days tune.

To Lead Next New Generation

guardian stallion
                                leads mares foals for survival
                                     graze from field to field

                                   foals become young colts
                                   driven away to lead next
                                          new generation

12 Horses Running In the Field

12 Horses RuNnInG in the Field

2  bits --------two horses

So many bits in the mouths of colts and fellies…
Running

Long Ago Spring Flowers

Flowering bluebonnets will soon carpet fields;
Baby colts playing, kicking up their heels.
Indian paintbrushes will streak through the blue,
And gnarled oak trees budding will show off their hue.

Once I rode a horse through the bluebonnet's terrain;
Low hanging thunderclouds portending of rain;
Showers refreshing drenching my face,
My love by my side 

Another time and another place.

The Awesome Merry Month

How awesome is the month of May.
They say it’s merry. That’s SO true.
Of springtime’s months, it is the best.
Rare it is to see clouds of grey.
Newborn lambs and cute colts frolic.
I want to play in that same way!
The season’s in full fruition -
not too hot like on a June day.
The grass is green and skies are blue.
It is the best of springtime’s months.
Outside I go with no delay!

I love

Dimpled dents, not potholes I love,
Fair unfair both, all doles I love.

With most voted horses on sale,
Steeds, stallions, colts and foals I love.

Popular may be peoples’ rule,
Ought such recurrent polls I love?

If scored with the fair ends and aims, 
All penalty scored goals I love.

Should they turn to diamond one day,
Carbons of all the coals I love.

By a Spring Fire

By a Spring Fire There is a place Where boughs of singing birds are swaying; Little colts with wobbly legs are playing; And bluebonnets and paintbrushes grow. Once my love and I rode horses, o’er Rolling hills like rough golf courses. So long, long ago. Now you are gone and I grow old; Shut away from days of gold; And the evening memories glow, In the fire of early Spring’s cold.

Tussilago Farfara, Or Coltsfoot

In waste places beside the road Coltsfoot grows in fertile till. A smallish flower no higher than a toad Its habitat seems to fit the bill. Not expecting a flower in this land Odd brown scales clasp its stalk. Skunk cabbage neighbors in its sand And makes a "feller" stop and gawk.. Leaves not unlike the hoof of a colt Hence the name, Colts-foot, you know. The first flower in spring to bolt And a weed that escapes my hoe. By any name, it's still a weed.
