Red Hair And Freckles
Tammy M. Duncan

With red hair, freckles & a peanut butter face
He looks at his mama with wonder & wait.
Those brown eyes a shining & looking so bright.
Just waiting for her to say ok go outside.
With a kiss on the cheek & a hug that’s so tight.
He heads for the door with six guns at side.
There are outlaws to catch, wild ponies to rides,
Gotta get them doggies before it gets night.
With rope in his hand & hat pulled down tight,
he saddles his pony & gets ready to ride.
I’m the toughest of cowboys! He shouts to his steed.
Ain’t sacred of no outlaw, Indian, or thief!
But even the toughest of cowboys get dumped.
And he came thru the front door with tears & a lump.
His mama was there to ease his pain.
With a kiss & a hug it all went away.
With red hair & freckles & a bump on his chin,
he was off riding the trails once again.
She knows that someday the time will come,
She’ll have to cut the fences & just let him run.
But with red hair & freckles & those shiny brown eyes.
He’s mama’s little cowboy, her joy & pride.

Thank you for the lovely freckled girl and words, Amy and Billie! I love freckles (except when I had them as a little girl...LOL!)

GOOD MILITARY MONDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!

The Soldier’s Code

1) I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.

3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in every way.

5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies, or harmful to their cause.

6) I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, August, 1955.

I had a good Sunday, our preacher in training preached, and he does a better job than our BORING preacher.

Good morning, Radix. Thank you for stopping by.

Welcome to Amy’s Place. Hope we see you again soon.

Thank you for your poems and your comments. The Dems and the moderate Republicans will continue to malign Christine O’Donnell. They cannot stand on their voting record so attack the opposition.

Thank you for looking! Beautiful hummingbird graphic, Amy.

It’s my pleasure...I love Hummingbirds.

[yorkie]

Thank you! It was a gif, and the wings moved on the birds, but it was too large to post here, so I shrunk it down to an acceptable size.

Sometimes, a painting can be ‘almost’ as beautiful as God’s paintbrush, I think.

[yorkie]

Aw, thanks, ladies. It doesn’t get any cuter’n that!

[JustAmy]

Happy Monday, LTOS.
