About the Book

In this book is a collection of poetry that I have written since early 2000. Cowboy poetry became my passion. My poetry may not follow the typical cowboy poetry way of writing but I have tried to twist my poetry around a cowboy way of thinking. You will find my writings are Americana with a cowboy flavor. I write about history, politics, emotions, trains, patriotism, historical characters, and at times I make fun of life. You may find a tear or two and a few laughs. Some of you will get it right away and others my have to ponder on it a while. Either way I believe you will be entertained and surprise with my Americana poetry with a cowboy twist.
