Sunset On The Desert Poem by Cowboy Ron Williams

Sunset On The Desert

Rating: 5.0


My horse has broken his front leg;
he stepped into a hole.
Some badger made it, sure enough,
back there behind the knoll.

There's nuthin' can be done fer him;
I'll have to put ‘im down
and hike ten miles back to the ranch
or thirteen miles to town.

I hear coyotes howlin' now,
but they don't bother me;
I've got my six-gun on my hip,
that I can guarantee.

There's cactus I can cut to get
some water fit to drink.
I'll set out now, and I'll be there
much quicker than you think!
