COWBOY

Up before the morning sun
Out to tend the herd
As if the work is never done
Yet done without a word

There is a certain peace at dawn
All cattle in accord
The trail, it seems, goes on and on
Before the dusty hoard

There is a bond 'tween man and beast
While some may think this strange
You love your cities in the East
The cowboy loves the range.

LONE RANGER'S CREED

I believe that to have a friend, a man must be one; that all men are created equal and that everyone has within himself the power to make this a better world; That God put the firewood there, but that every man must gather and light it himself; In being prepared physically, mentally, and morally to fight when necessary for that which is right; That a man should make the most of what equipment he has; That sooner or later...somewhere...somehow...we must settle with the world and make payment for what we have taken; That all things change, but the truth, and the truth alone lives on forever; I believe in my Creator, my country, my fellow man.

Beautiful. I like your poem, FishHawk, and the graphic captures the mood perfectly.

I don’t know if you’re in northern Cal now, FishHawk, but there was a small EQ in Solano County last night, wondering if you or Mama Bear felt any of it.

Gday, Amy.

'Tis a special day in the dd household... 43 years ago my high school sweetheart became my bride - A Navy Bride.

Here's a bic from our anniversary two years ago and the original wedding gown and veil... :)
