                                                                                    He works where wind is both rein and guide,

                                                                                    Years in the saddle have toughened his hide.




                                                                                    His sovereign spirit’s never felt a brand,

                                                                                    He’s a gracious tenant of the land.




                                                                                    No telling the rugged ranges he’s sampled,

                                                                                    Memories collected, never to be trampled.




                                                                                    He lives with Mother Nature whisper-close,

                                                                                    This is the laborious life he treasures most.




                                                                                    It’s between earth and sky he feels most at

                                                                                    home,

                                                                                    With fences far flung and room to roam.




                                                                                    It’s with a skillful hand and watchful eye

                                                                                    He preserves traditions from days gone by.




                                                                                                                                                          45
