The Call of the Open Range
The wild west wasn’t tamed by sitting still—it took courage to follow the horizon.
In the meadows hush, soft whispers weave,
Through fields of gold where brave hearts grieve.
With each gentle breeze, a tale unfolds,
Of silent struggles that the earth holds.
The plowman™s hands, carved deep with care,
Plant seeds of hope in the sunlit air.
Yet storms may rage and droughts may scar,
Each sacrifice shines like a distant star.
Down by the river where willows weep,
The land recalls promises it must keep.
For nature™s bounty, a price is paid,
In the quiet hours where dreams are laid.
As sunsets blush with hues of regret,
The cowboy rides, no answers beget.
But in each hoofprint, a story steers,
Of the meadow™s heart, and its hidden tears.
