  • Dust & Determination: A Cowboy's Chronicle

    In this novel I am writing.poetry dedicated to the Cowboys of the open range and detailing their rough , dangerous livesDust on my hat, sun in my eyes, Riding the range, under wide skies. Cattle to herd, across the plains so grand, Working the land, with calloused hand. Then shadows creep, a rustler's sly design, Horses gone missing, a desperate sign. We spur our steeds, a chase begun, Until the thieves are caught, and justice done. Distant drums sound, a tribal cry, Native peoples watching, as we pass them by. Sometimes a clash, a tense, uneasy stand, Protecting our herds, across this wild land. Campfires flicker, beneath a starry dome, Miles from home, but this is where we roam. A simple life, of grit and of the trail, Facing the dangers, through sun and through gale.
