Roundup on the Frontier
Every cowboy knows the importance of gathering strength before the storm.
In dust and dawn, the windmill spins,
Its creaking voice, where time begins.
A sentinel tall, against the sky,
Whispers the tales of days gone by.
Beneath its shade, the cowboy sighs,
With leathered hands and weathered eyes.
He toils and dreams, a life he finds,
In whispered echoes that fill the winds.
The prairie stretches, vast and wide,
A canvas where his hopes abide.
Each turn of blades, a promise sworn,
Of trials faced and bridges worn.
As evening falls, the stars ignite,
The windmill stands, a beacon bright.
In silence deep, it still will thrive,
A testament, where spirits strive.
