About This Blog

My photo
I have loved things Country and Western all of my life. I have loved the ranches and farms. the fields, the barns, livestock, and the food. I was born and raised in Kentucky where I learned to love and appreciate the beauty, hard work, and value of country living, Most of my family lived on farms and/or were livestock producers. I have raised various livestock and poultry over the years. I have sold livestock feed and minerals in two states. My big hats and boots are only an outward manifestation of the country life I hold dear to my heart. With the help of rhyme or short story, in recipes or photos, I make an effort in this blog to put into words my day to day observations of all things rural; the things that I see and hear, from under my hat. All poems and short stories, unless noted otherwise, are authored by me. I hope you enjoy following along.

Autumn Day





Autumn Day

 
Standing at woods edge this Autumn day

I see the fields last cutting of hay

Oh, I know that winter’s on its way

But isn’t this day sublime?



Yellows and oranges, reds and browns

Come tumbling, tumbling softly down

From trees that wore such regal crowns

And will be very bare in time



Grasses so golden, blown by the wind

Lofty clouds wrapped in rich blue skin

Ah, Autumn I hate to see you end

But isn’t today sublime ?
