Cowboy's Heart



WikiMedia Cowboy in the badlands

Cowboy  trail leading west
open plains, promised land

can't  tie his spirit down
he rides  from dawn to dusk

watch out gal he'll lasso your heart
keep you warm on cold nights

but rough days ahead, when he's gone
driving cattle,  long and hard

lonely nights around the campfire
under a  starry sky,  he'll dream of you

missing home, his calloused hands
long to touch,  his heart sings a song

while, you're  sleeping alone in that bed
working the homestead, baking bread

this ain't no  life for me, I want a man
who can put his hat down & stay a spell


for dVerse  having fun writing cowboy poetry
