FREE VERSE

IT TAKES HEART FOR FAME

 

There’s nothing but boots bulls and mud

if there's a bull

there's going to be a rider,

 

You gotta have guts

with guts comes glory

and a chance of fame

 

you have a bad ride don’t blame the bull

you have a good ride

thank the bull

 

not just anyone can ride

so if you think you can,

I dare you to try

 

so what if you can stay on 8 seconds

that don’t matter

it takes heart to make a good 90 point ride

and that's what makes fame

and a real cowboy.

THE FARM

 

I dream

My dad

Out in the country on our own farm

That we worked hard for

THE IDIOT

 

You're sitting on the couch

Your cousin comes in and blames something on you

Aka the idiot

You say you didn’t do it

No one believes you   

Your parents are away at a race in Ohio

You're staying at your grandma’s

Your cousins are there

The cousin that's there is as old as you are

You tell him to go outside with you

Your grandma lives in  the country

You're really mad and he knows it

He starts getting cocky

You get irritated

Be for you even try to talk he pushes you

You want to punch him and beat the sense into him so bad

You think about how you should be the bigger person

He pushes you again

Your temper flares

But you walk away making you be the bigger person

And him an idiot

WRESTLING

 

You walk into the gym

There are butterflies in your stomach

You get dressed

You start warming up

Taking shots

Sweating hard

Your sweatshirt is itchy but you keep working

Warming ups over

You're up first

You had butterflies in your stomach

But as soon as you step out on that matt

The adrenaline is pumping

You shake hands

The ref blows the whistle

 You're afraid of the bottom

So you lock up on the head

The coaches are yelling knee pick knee pick

You face your fears

You take a shot

You get your two

Then you get the pin

FARMERS

 

You wake at dawn

Smell that fresh dew

Getting ready for the day

With a cup a coffee

Then a pair of boots  

You feed the steers

You water the chickens

You start the John Deere

Then you start cutting hay

Smell that fresh cut grass

You smell that  summer air

Then think to yourself  thank god I’m  a farmer

SMALL Moment

Helping Milk

 

You smell the manure

man does it smells so rich and good

you bring cows in

You wash the teats

somebody puts the milkers on

Then you spray Iodine on

There’s a chicken pecking at the ground

Or there’s a duck eating feed

It’s like the old days and man is it sweet.
