Poem Hunter notified me the other day
that a certain person had started
following me.
I had to wonder why.
I've already been everywhere
and done everything
I ever wanted to do.
Well, almost.
I have no place else to go
and nothing left to do.
I'm just sittin' around
waitin' for the buzzards
to carry me off.
So, no need to follow me.
I ain't goin' nowhere.
PART ONE--humph--even if you 'just' ride a rocking chair on your front porch, I'll sit there and rock by you and listen to your tales about your life or life in general--Cowboys always have traveled some interesting trails to share and stood outside at night and communed with the stars
PART FOUR--- my horse is a traveling fiend and I've never worn him down yet so we be following your trail cuz it's been a worthwhile journey and I'm no slouch riding a rocking chair either--- I guess you'll have to put up with a huge gathering of rocking chairs on your porch
You're a hard person to follow, anyway, Cowboy. My horse can't keep up with yours. I'll just wait for the buzzards to carry you off, and I'll follow the buzzards!
I'm still following you pard, you're one of the few left in these parts who knows the trail!
Great one Cowboy. I love the picture! I think I know that broomtail, his pappy throwed me at the Daddy of em All in Cheyenne a few years back!
i DON'T think of vultures/buzzards carrying off parts of carcasses, but I believe I DID see one carry off a small dead mammal from our backyard some years ago, I think a mole I'd seen lying around.

PART THREE---so buck up. my friend, we're going to follow you whether you think you're not going anywhere cuz you already have gone a lot of interesting places in this world and in your life and we like hearing about it--so there.
