Roundup on the Frontier

Every cowboy knows the importance of gathering strength before the storm.

In dusty trails where laughter spins,
A coyotes laugh, a jokesters grin.
With lassos tossed and spirits high,
Underneath the wide, blue sky.

The tumbleweeds roll like secrets shared,
As punchlines fly, our woes are bared.
We gather ‘round the crackling fire,
Each tale a thread that wont expire.

With twinkling stars like diamonds bright,
Old cowhands boast of wild midnight fights.
Yet in their tales, a truth runs deep,
That laughters the treasure we all keep.

So raise a toast to the sunsets hue,
With friends who know just what to do.
In the golden glow, let worries cease,
For humor rides on the winds of peace.
