With Vigor Rode In On Trigger

With Vigor Rode In On Trigger

Our anxiety grew bigger and bigger,
Until someone appeared with vigor;
With a long lariat;
He would carry it;
Roy Rogers had rode in on Trigger.

Silver Lariat

he told her that he loved her
and that his love was true
he sealed it with a kiss
underneath a crescent moon
besides this gift of loving
he placed around her neck
an intricate piece of jewelry
a silver lariat

Swing Low

I lassoed with my lariat
a laureate named Harriet;
I rope-a-doped a pope
and washed his mouth with soap.
The wheel broke on my chariot;
it was too big to carry it.
The poet and the pope got hitched;
I’ll be home soon, I hope.

he had feelings for this big galoot

She came prancing in wearing a lovely houndstooth suit.
And a silky lavender shirt, and a neck tie lariat to boot.
Her oversized rhinestone shades made her ex yell out “shoot!”
He still had enormous loving feelings for this feminine galoot.

Silver Lining

I guess the silver lining
is that I learn humility
once more I forgive
and love falls at your feet
roping with your lariat
more than you'll ever need
what do you do with the excess?
when you tire of paying heed
when the sky is clear and cloudless
when your limit has been exceeded

Cowboy Howdy the Clown Goes Home

Cowboy Howdy the Clown still goes
To town with ten little shoes on his toes
Purple hair and a square blue nose
Ten grey flowers for Cimarron Rose
An itty bitty teeny weeny cowboy hat 
Vaquero chaps and a little dogies tat
A plug of chaw and a lariat
Two six-shooters and a shoulder rat
He sure looks silly; he sure looks strange
And he's looking for his home on the range.

Heads Up

I saw a jet, jet ‘cross the sky

silvered high, captivating my 
eye: 

Surely no meteor could show 
natural better, icing the sky
leaving lick-able tails of frosty
air glitter -- 

The jet made circles

a lariat rhinestone cowboy

or sparkly pinwheel in the hands of
dancing child – surely some future
astronaut, making
novelty of atomic flash and fire – 

celestial lollipops

two scoop cones of sprinkled faceted
stars….
