 corralling a cowboy might seem like a feat he's quite strong and rugged and quick on his feet he'll buck and he'll twist and stay just out of range and when you get close his direction will change the glare of his belt buckle blinding your eyes will slow you enough that he'll think he's too wise then all that you need once he's let down his guard is a bright friendly smile it's really not hard now that he's right where you want him to be just lasso him tightly and don't set him free a cowboy will try to act tough till he's smitten but deep down inside beats the heart of a kitten -vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

Now hasn't anyone told you the rules to putting a cowboy in a corral. First off, you got to make him believe that he is doing all of the roping and corraling.  Secondly, you have to know that a cowboy likes to roam the range though he does always come home eventually. Thirdly, yes, a cowboy's heart is always true when he is smitten as you say but this thing about being a kitten????????????...........WELL NOW, THAT is just way to far fetched now isn't it? LOL I don't know that a cowboy could purrrrrrrrrrr if he tried and if he could, do you think that he would ever admit it? HHHHHHHmmmmmmmm, well my sweet friend, I have to admit it does feel good to be home in Passions and have a dear friend such as you to find those lovely smiles, but I ain't admittin to being hogtied so easily.LOL.......so how good is your rope anyway? I know, I know, only of the finest quality!!!!!! Cheeeezzzzzz, how does a cowboy get caught but not get caught? I guess I will have to work on that one some!!! Now, before you think of branding me with that thar iron, just remember...it is the cowboy that does the branding regardless of the new fangled ways of the world and all. Hugs to you my sweet friend and all that you do and to all of you that came by to see just how to rope and corral a cowboy. |

Ethome-SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.....I never said I wouldn't, I just said I wouldn't admit it. Now don't go a trying to ruin my image my friend.LOL Just how many ropes are on me now anyway? Whew......I hate a tryin to get my spurs untangled from a horse hair rope!!!!!! Couldn't ya'll have at least made it rawhide so it wouldn't be so darn hard to find the knot? |

Vicky, cute poem, It doesn't matter that you can make him purrr like a kitten it only matters that he's not a cur when he's smitten. Write on Kethry Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |
