Ballad Of The Canyon Comments

So beautifully written that I could imagine myself on that old horse. Thank you for sharing your poem . 😊

So beautifully written, I felt as if U was riding that old horse.

Linda, this is one of the most beautiful ballad poems I have read in a long time. I agree that the music from Marty Robbins' El Paso fits this piece very well. Everything Country attracts me like a magnet. I belong to a western re-enactment group over here in England. On Saturday nights we gather around an open fire and sing songs like El Paso until the early hours of the morning. I gave this a big 10 because I think it deserves it. Loved it. David

Just been singing your song! Extremely well written lyrics. Perfect for the tune. You've obviously written songs before! ! ? This is such a change of direction that I'm mouth-slapped. XX jim

And a fine, if ultimately sad, ballad it is too :) I wouldn't have minded the cowboy falling...but the horse, after all that work? Shame for a four legged friend. An easy and punchy read, Linda :) Best wishes. Jack.
