Happy Trails In The Sun

Basking in the sun

Reading how the West was won

Filled with gold, cowboys, and guns

Wishing I was the squaw of brave Indian

 

My life’s just begun

I’m just learning while I’m young

Reading all of the books that I can learn from

Hanging out with friends and having fun

 

Love has yet to come undone

For now I just use my imagination

Happy trails is the song that is sung

As I ride off into the setting sun

This is written with such a young ish tinge to it...the tone really authenticates the message and the placement.

What a remarkable read...left a fleeting happiness in me.

Nicely done :)

Indian sunsets made out of gold
A love on the range for you to hold
Having so much fun in the sun
And a lovely poem for me to hum


Always good to read your thoughts Marie

I like those words. "Happy trails." Old words that mean a lot if we try to understand life journey. Better to be content and look for the good in a life. Thank you for a excellent poem.
