Chasing Dreams Across the Plains
Out here, every cowboy knows that fortune favors the bold.
Under a blood-red sky, the ground lay cracked,
The thirsty earth, a parched whispering ghost.
Where rivers once flowed, now silence stacked,
Survivals dance, a dangerous boast.
The cattle roam, their weary eyes dim,
In search of shade beneath the scorching blaze.
A cowboy™s pride, though worn to the brim,
Is tested strong in these harsh summer days.
With leather reins gripped tight in grit-stained hands,
He charts the vastness where no water flows.
Each sun-stunned mile, the thirst demands,
Yet strength blooms fierce where the wild wind blows.
So raise a toast to grit and spirits fight,
For life survives beneath the crimson sky.
In dust and shadow, dreams take flight,
In the heart of drought, where legends lie.
