OH I ONLY WANT TO BE A COWBOY

I ONLY WANT TO BE A COWBOY

 

Oh I only want to be a cowboy

To run and buck and to ride

Oh I only want to be a cowboy

With my Harley by my side

 

When the sun is sinking in the West

Where the bearded sons come to thrill

I`ll inhale the fumes of the exhaust

As we go roaring up the hill

 

Oh I only want to be a cowboy

Playing poker all night long

Listening to the roar of the v-4

Stinking up the West singing my song

 

Oh I only want to be a cowboy

To ride The lonely West

To heck with society and all the rest

Got my Harley and my cowhide vest

your spirit is so ALIVE in this. there's nothing like a cowboy who knows how to spin some words.

Excellent rhyme and wow the flows like a waterfall
Your words speak to this reader of your desire to be free of all chaos
Of every day stress, leave all worries and civilization behind
Get on that Harley and ride and live your own life
To soar free like an eagle
Brilliant poetic view of your thoughts

Now this is a poem about true freedom. Out in the West on a Harley leaving the cultured world and stress behind. It almost makes me want to be a cowboy but I'm not keen on switching genders lol Guess I could be a cowgirl. I love the easy flow of this poem. it is so smooth you don't even notice it and it seems to flow freely without work.

You always manage to make me smile or in this case laugh right out loud. What a great poem! My son-in-law just sold his Harley two weeks ago and I thought he was going to cry when they took his 'baby' away. Heck I almost cried too. This is another witty poem I much enjoyed.

Laughing .. how one person can write such a mix of themes I really don't know and each makes the reader sit up and re-read .. not least this post! I can almost imagine you singing the words .. drink in hand .. relaxed .. smiling
