Man what a pain,
This day has been.
From the first hint of light,
Till bed time again.
It was muddy and wet,
Really damp and cool.
Every thing I did made me look,
Like an even bigger fool.
From feeding the calves,
To doctoring a cow.
Thank the lord,
It's all over now.
Some days are tests,
To see if I'm tough.
Some days I wonder,
If I'm really tough enough.
From punching some cows,
To balin' some hay.
Sometimes a month,
Feels like one big day.
But this is my job,
It's what I love to do.
And my finished product,
Is used by all of you.
So when you eat a steak,
Or a bowl of ice cream.
It's all because the lord,
Lets me live my dream.

I read through the posts in the coffee shop,
and posted one on a topic from Crowder.
Some of the replies caused my heart to stop,
And now I am a Cattle Today doubter.
Talk of the Q word, sequins and dudes in dresses
makes my stomach more than a little queasy.
I will make sure if ever I visit one of their barns
That they aren't dressed kinda sleazy.
I hope that in time I can tell from their post
who is a guy or a gal
But that topic has given me doubt of most
and I damn sure don't need a "pal"
;-)

Crowder and women oh what a story,
If it wasn't for his wife we'd all have to worry,
Ollie and his boots sewn all together,
Finally some new boots he did gather,
Texan and his hugeness,
Now I see why with him nobody wants to mess,
Frenchie and Oldtimer always at each others throats,
Somebody really should tie up those two old goats,
La4 is one of the best that I know,
Lucky ole coot is down south out of all this snow,
Nobody can forget all our pretty ladies,
Such as cert, txag, msscamp, and oh so many more,
Cattle is what we most often discuss,
But we often get off track and get in trouble when we cuss
Pot stirrer encompasses most one and all,
What would this board be without a weekly squabble,
To Macon and his crew I must thank
For giving us a place to argue who is better
Big 'n Rich, or good ole Hank
Merry Christmas Ya'll!

................. Lazy Boy ............
T' was the night before Christmas and all through the house, The Mrs. was abuzz as I lay on the couch.
Stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
She put them up, I wouldn't dare.
For you see I am lazy, can't help it a bit.
No matter how mad as she throws a major fit.
You see I've been like this for over a year.
Honey, while your up could you bring me a beer?
As I sit here thinking of two thousand five,
Isn't it great to be so alive.
Ah here she is with my beer and a kiss
Hands it to me with the ' 06 honey_do list.
Marking off numbers one ,two, and three.
These are too hard for the likes of lazy me.
Four and five, maybe, could give it a shot,
Long as I can do them in the shade on my cot.
Next three I browse, six, seven, eight
Just reading those would make my nap late.
Nine and ten aren't nearly as bad
But I don't think avocado is in as a fad.
All this reading is making me tired
What could I do so wrong to get fired?
I guess I am doomed to 30 to life,
But could be much worse with a lazy wife.

Here's one I wrote back in ' 92. Forgot I'd written it until I found it tucked away in a drawer.
Cattlemen's Tribute
You know the Barkleys, Cartwrights, and Lucas McCain
And if by watching TV Westerns you would prob'ly ascertain
That a cattleman must be hard fisted and fast on the draw
And they hate sheepmen, farmers and sometimes disrespect the law.
They spend their days in a smokey saloon, but wait a minute now,
You know those TV cowboys hardly have anything to do with a cow.
Let's take a look at what takes up a real cattleman's time
And maybe you'll respect him more after readin' this ryhme.
Cattlemen are managers of pastures and range
And must know how to treat sarcoptic mange.
They understand EPDs of a prospective sire
And spend too much time stringin' up barbed wire.
Cattlemen must stay abreast of the ideals of the NCBA
And know just when to cut and bale their hay.
He's concerned for the well-being of his cattle
Fighting sickness and parasites are an everyday battle.
Cattlemen are experts on cattle,mechanics and grass
They're not old relics livin' in the past.
Genetics, marketing, computers are involved in his career
Which breed of cattle to use, British, Exotic, or those breeds with "ear."
A cattleman has to know how to select against fat
And breed for lean meat that will please the palate.
Cattlemen must sometimes be hard hearted
To sell a faithful old cow whose teeth have departed.
People may say thet to the cattleman a cow's comfort doesn't matter.
Is this why he's assisting a hard birth in temps that make the teeth chatter?
Or helping a newborn stand up and nurse
Or why he eats later while feeding the cows first?
No, gunslinging and fistfighting are not what cattlemen do
They spend their days working hard to feed people like you.
Big hats, conchos, exotic skin boots don't matter.
The cattleman's concern is putting a good piece of beef on your platter.
