When your Father is a Cowboy……. You learn to |
In honor of Father’s Day this Sunday, I wrote a quick poem.
When your Father is a Cowboy
When your Father is a Cowboy…………….
You grow up differently than the kids around you.
Your Father teaches you things like changing oil in your pickup or how to rope.
When your Father is a Cowboy…………
He teaches you hard work will pay off.
When your Father is a Cowboy…………….
You learn about life and you learn about death.
You learn how to treat sick animals and you learn
how to skin a deer.
When your Father is a Cowboy…………….
You learn that doing things the right way first is always better.
When your Father is a Cowboy……….
You learn how to fix fence!
When your Father is a Cowboy…………..
You hear stories of wild, bucking horses bucking thru mamas garden.
You hear stories of roping a coyotes or chasing the mean badgers.
When your Father is a Cowboy……………
Your family vacations are picnics at the creek or long cattle drives.
When your Father is a Cowboy………..
You learn to pack a snack or two because you might not be in for lunch.
When your Father is a Cowboy…………..
You hear things like: “Get up. You are wasting God’s daylight.”
When your Father is a Cowboy………….
There is no time to cry.
When your Father is a Cowboy………….
You always have a friend.
When your Father is a Cowboy………….
He teaches you manners and traditions.
When your Father is a Cowboy………..
His hands feel like sand paper.
When your Father is a Cowboy…………
The first vehicle you drove is a tractor!
When your Father is a Cowboy………..
You find yourself more interested in the weather
and the cattle markets then you do the news.
When your Father is a Cowboy………….
You learn when he says, “Will you help me get the cows moved?”
Really means, you will be helping me alllllll day.
When your Father is a Cowboy…………
You learn work ethic at a very early age.
When your Father is a Cowboy………….
You don’t get a wage. You get a pat on the back.
When your Father is a Cowboy………..
You have the best life!
Happy Father’s Day!!
Love Naomi
