Texas Rose – A New Poem

Texas Rose

In a pastoral field

Help me choose

‘Tween what’s fake and what’s real

*

Guiding Wind

Or perhaps it is Light

I can’t tell

‘Tween the wrong and the right

*

Sun kissed days

Bleed into strokes of pink

Slow on down

And take the time to think

*

We can run free

Like the horses in dreams

One thing is sure

It ain’t bad like it seems

*

So I say this

And my words are meant true

It’s not how tough

Rather it’s what you do

*

Take my hand

And never let it go

There is much

For this world to still show

*

You and I

And hazy seas of lore

Unending

This is what it is for

*

Texas Rose

In a harsh land yet free

I love you

And your strength plain to see

*
