Short Biography about me, the author.
Spending a lifetime on the Texas Panhandle prairies in and around Amarillo exposes a feller to a unique life style.
As a youngster and continuing into manhood, I flirted with the aggregation of words to captivate the attention of any audience that would listen; whether that audience was a girl, the guy's, or just whomever would listen. To be honest though, mostly just to gather attention.
To lasso words with a pen, corral them within the confines of a margin, and brand them for my own is a thought that just came to me within the past couple of years. Though I was exposed to Cowboy Poetry my entire life, the honored title of a Cowboy Poet was for some of my close friends and others, but not a title I considered for myself.
Since making the decision to become a Cowboy Poet, I have performed my own original poetry from Eastern Tennessee, through-out Texas, up through Illinois, across to Idaho, down through Utah to Southern California, and many, many point's in-between.
I've been honored to accept many awards from the International Library of Poetry, the International Society of Poets, the American Poets Society just to name a few. I have some of my works published in books, on CD's and of course several websites.
I am not just proud, but also honored to share a poem with you folks at this time.
Thanks!
Texas Cowboy Ish
