Wild Horses ~ {a Septolet}

beautiful bangtail
spirit untamed
racing tumbleweeds
thundering
across mesas

stallions wrestle
under night skies...

a voice call out  -
make my day....

May hot coffee be a brewin’
On the campfires of your friends—
May good Mulligan be stewin’
When you reach your last trail’s end.

After being freed from slavery,
Became the most famous black cowboy in history.
But the cause of his death stayed a mystery.

The wagons circled round,
Hearts began to pound-
It's too quiet....was the prophetic sound.

May you gather kin ‘round campfires
And give thanks to God on high—
May you feast and relish friendships
Before that round-up in the sky.

May your cattle drives be short ones,
May worries be small and far—

Sleep

sink into sleep
drop into deep
paddle in waves
of fluffed up sheep
glide through the dark
fade into dense
waves of muffled
quiet rest.

Good Morning Smokers

Just one puff 

I hug my feelings of 
Holding you on my 
Lips and take just 
One puff..... My dear

GOD Is LOVE

He is  for us all
Just call 
You will not fall
You will stand tall
Will cure you pain
Stop eyes that rain
Look up sky above
GOD IS LOVE

Today's the day Lucky Luke
trades his hat in for a tuque
not sure his fashion choice and flair
will still be a hit with ladies everywhere
