Finding Gold in the Details
The Old West taught us that persistence often unearths the greatest treasures.
At Laughing River, under the sun,
Two sharpshooters grinned, ready for fun.
Their pistols hung low, with quips in the air,
A clash of the titans, a show beyond compare.
Take your best shot! grinned Slim Jim McGraw,
With a wink in his eye and a banterous draw.
The crowd stifled laughter, their hearts racing fast,
As bullets flew quick, but the jests flew more vast.
From dust clouds of laughter, the two took their aim,
With each shot a story, each jest just the same.
“Missed that old barn, friend, can you even load right?”
The sun dipped low, casting shadows of light.
As evening descended, the dust settled down,
The smiles of the crowd replaced frowns with a crown.
For laughter had triumphed, the true fate revealed,
At Laughing Rivers showdown, the heart of the field.
