A little Poem I wrote

[AZ Jim]

That was published in a book of poetry. You needn't buy the book...here is my poem free...

[FONT=&quot]Just a cowboy[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]by AZ Jim[/FONT][FONT=&quot][/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]I went out like the others
Full of breakfast knowing
From now on for two weeks
I had to survive on Cookies food

Mornings came early, too early
The ground was hard but I slept
The day was long and the sun hot

The saddle gets to a man in a painful
Way after sittin in it all day and
Riding hard. But on we rode, all of
Us.

These cattle had to make it to
Market and it was we who got
'em there. Counted, put in pens
The cattle, not us.

Now many of those cows are in
Your grocery store, under plastic
Put there by folks who didn't really
Know about them like we do.
Butchered, put on grills, served
To laughing friends with beer,
I didn't put 'em there....

I was just one of the cowboys....[/FONT]

In-frequently I get inspired.

I wish I could write, not just poems but short stories, a diary, anything. I'm just not talented in that respect. I have trouble even replying to a post sometimes.
That's probably the reason my posts are usually only a sentence or two.
Alhough I'm not an artist, I think I'm better at that than writing.

Very nice Jim. I use to write poems to my wife, before and after we were married. I found a couple in my sock drawer and read them a while back. Gave me a good laugh for sure. :sentimental:

Well done, Jim

Jim.

You have a talent.

Thanks for sharing.

You're a poet but don't know it, but your feet show it

because they're Longfellows.
