The Mustang Years I've come back to the desert Where I came long years ago. My pal and I caught horses For a traveling rodeo, We learned to know the secrets Of this mighty, awesome land, A-trailing after mustangs And we got to know each band. Now some are gone to bullets And the winters take some too. There's some have gone for dog food And their hooves made into glue. Some of them are rounded up And adopted out they say, But some still roam this country, For I saw their tracks today. Lying here upon the ground And just staring at the sky, I guess it must be raining, For I don't know how to cry. My cheeks are wet with something. I suppose it must be tears, Reliving all the memories Of those vanished, mustang years! Betty Lou Hebert |
