New Trail
I've done many things in life; some bad, some good
But the newest thing I've done, I never knew I
could.
I have worked from a young age, learning many different
tasks
There have been many special ones as the time has passed.
I have always like farm and ranch work; I feel that is where I belong
Had I been born in a different century; As a Cowboy I could not go wrong
The Lord has richly blessed me with this job I do have
Taking care of my horse's feet; Now that is not so bad.
The Lord has taken me down a new trail
To do this new thing, I never thought I'd prevail
Never having dreamed the words the Lord would give me
Much to my surprise, I started writing Cowboy Poetry.
Where it goes from here, Heaven only knows
This is poem #6, and I just started a week ago!
Whether they are any good is not for me to say
All I know is I hope I can make them pay!
