under night skies...

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.

Of all good things on this earth—

And pay honor to Christ’s birth.

Throats were burning dry,
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

May your cattle drives be short ones,
May worries be small and far—
May you find peace at life’s railhead
And at long last rope your star.

The Smell

I am infatuated
with the smell
of horse
sweet
and unique
in the heat
After a long day
go 
smell a horse
and see
if you
feel the same

I have a friend
Now trapped in memories
Who loved a song
I sang today
Since then I've added
More words
Re-seeing him 
Helped me hit the notes

There was a pilot called bush
Who flew by the seat of his tush,
   His job was so tricky
   That he listened to dicky
And silenced his critics with shush!

Tombstone - Like the Four Horsemen

they walked along
weathered, carrying their guns;
like the four horsemen…

down to the O.K.
guns blazing, bullets flying;
smoke clears, the strong stand…

A Cowboy Is Contest: Deanz

There once was a cowboy called Deanz,
Who lived on a diet of beans,
It was windy that night -
I can feel for his plight -
Yes, he needed to change his jeans...

Tombstone

When you scribe on my last rock
                   Make sure that the words are nice and fit
          If not, I may come back as a scary spirit and visit you one day

Tales amongst natives of the plains
Of a shepherd dog's near human brain-
Adventures of two, close as twins
Rusty a lad,with  boyish grin
And his Alsation...Rin-Rin-Tin
