Making a Cowhorse
(Part 1)
I started out at day break,
to teach that filly to load,
she kind of has a mind of her own...
by eight we were on the road.
After fifteen miles of ruts and potholes,
into cow camp we did rattle,
threw a saddle on the filly,
and rode out to hunt some cattle.
The little dun has been to school,
she reins and handles well,
but her education had some gaps,
as the day's events would tell.
