The drought


Rain falling from the sky
Pitter Patter, pitter pat.
If it wouldn’t have rained, we would all die
The big, big drops roll off the brim of my hat.

The plants, the trees, the grass,
All turned brown in the drought
I sit on the stream watching the bass,
As they jump around and all about.

My horse stands and crops
The rain rolls off my brim
It falls from the sky in big drips and drops
I’m dripping wet, soaked to the skin.

And I sit there by the stream
She walked over and sat beside me
And laid her head on my shoulder, like it were a dream
I don’t know how, I just can’t see!

She said she loved me and left then,
She said she hated me, and she came back
As life went on, she ran to me like a heifer in the pen
Maybe now I wont have to live alone in my bachelor’s shack…


Women... You'll never understand them. lol.

lol. Dad said to put that. lol. I can never bring myself to wwrite a very solemn serious poem. Even the one that I wrote for my grandpa's funeral was a little funny. To me, a poem should bring a smile to a person's face when they read it. lol.

Not always, if you can bring across the emotion that you want, you have gotten your word across, be it happy, sad, whatever. I did not realize what I had written when I wrote the Veterans Day Tribute, I sent it to a very good friend of mine who is a Vietnam vet, he put it in their paper and I was getting calls and emails from people I don't know thanking me for writing it. I thought it was good but I did not know the impact it would have on people. JB's Green and white is the perfect example, we all hate the white and putting up with the mud but without it we are into your DROUGHT, he had all of those emotions in that poem, even if it only makes you stop and think, you got your point across. You keep working o this stuff and you will have some very good things to share. Words are very powerful, learn to use them wisely.

You have an absolutely wonderful attitude there, ACS.

I always admired folks who could make other people feel comfortable
or at ease around them. I strive for that every day.
