Mr. Smith has written something of a classic cowboy poem. In tetrameter, he uses perfect rhyming couplets to reflect upon what his life has been and where he hopes to go next, "...where where old cowboys roam/And ride the range of ma heavenly home." The poem's a little bit corny, and probably romanticizes improbably about a hard life style, but it's very well done. 'Stirs up 'memberin' my stirrups on the shelf.' Like the end scene of a 1950s western.

-Very nice artwork and presentation, Willie.
-You wrote a very good poem with effective
imagery and rhyme.
-You do a good job portraying the cowboy
and his decision to offer a prayer to God.
-I like this line: "But my body says whoa and ma' age is showin'"
-He is very honest and sincere in his requests; he loves his horse
and would like to "ride the range of ma' heavenly home."
-Good concluding lines, too.
-Well done!

Your lingo throughout this poem is absolutely the best -- I loved it, and I loved the topic too. I'm not a cowgirl, but I sure felt the 'twang' and I certainly envisioned all that you wrote -- nicely done!

This is a great poem. We all wish that we had just a little bit more time to do everything before we pass. No life is lived without a few regrets. Excellent job!

Interesting taletelling of this poem, the cowboy wished and talked with Lord, the cowboy wishes to go to roam in the heavenly home of the cowboys; he wishes to ride horse and go for the adventure; well said, ALCREATOR LITT DEAR 06/01/2023

This font seems perfect for a handwritten note written out on the range somewhere. It's straight from the heart and very touching. I'd like to think with all the big wig high fallutin' talkers out there, God would appreciate a simple note like this!

I enjoyed the read of your poem/prayer. I found it engaging, descriptive
and creative. I pondered on the words of this poem and thought about
how the author words related so well to a cowboys dreams! The poem
flows and connects well. The artwork is awesome and I liked how the
horse's head is bowed. Great Poem!

I think that some persons are silly in a way of how they badly treat certain nice people in real life. In some sense of it it just doesn't make sense. I have enjoyed reading your poem. Excellent work!
