Kicking Up Dust on the Trail
The trail might be tough, but a cowboy always finds a way forward.
Amidst the plains where shadows play,
The last great herds have lost their way.
In whispers soft, the grasses sigh,
As fading hoofprints tell goodbye.
A lonesome rider, worn and grey,
Recalls the dust of yesterday.
With every breeze, he feels the tear,
For boundless skies, now drawing near.
The cattles call, a haunting tune,
Beneath the watchful, silver moon.
He rides the trails that once were bold,
Where tales of glory now grow cold.
Yet in his heart, a fire remains,
For open roads and wild terrains.
With final breaths of twilights breeze,
He bids farewell to earths decrees.
