The Lure of Wide-Open Spaces
There’s something about the open range that speaks to the soul of a cowboy.
desert stretches wide, a sunlit sea,
Where laughter dances with the tumbleweed,
Cowboys craft jokes like seams in leather,
Binding the land with threads of mirth, indeed.
With spurred boots striking on the dust-dry trail,
They share tall tales ˜neath the scorching sun,
From rattlesnake wrangling to cacti pranks,
Their humor™s woven, like a lariat run.
At dusk, with coyotes as their audience brave,
The air rings bright with jests and hearty cheer,
As shadows blend with the crimson sky,
These guardians laugh, bringing life ever near.
So if you wander this arid frontier,
And hear a chuckle, don™t pass on by,
For cowboys guard the spirit, fierce and free,
With humor lighting the vast desert sky.
