The Lure of Wide-Open Spaces
There’s something about the open range that speaks to the soul of a cowboy.
In moonlit glow, the meadow sighs,
With whispers soft where the night owl flies.
The silver leaves, like dancers, sway,
As dreams take flight at the end of the day.
A lone cowboy sits on a weathered mound,
His thoughts drift far, where wild steeds abound.
The crackle of fire paints shadows tall,
While starlit skies beckon him to recall.
Each twinkling star, a story untold,
Of rugged trails where his heart would unfold.
Through victories sweet and losses keen,
In the quiet night, his spirit convenes.
As dawn creeps forth, with a blush in the east,
The cowboy stirs, from his midnight feast.
With memories cherished, he rides into light,
Bound for new journeys, the horizon in sight.
