Playin' Cowboy

I love to be a cowboy
and ride my horse around the room.
He's black and white and he won't bite
(he's really Mommy's broom) .

I shoot my guns at bad guys
when I ride down the trail.
(they're really just my dog and cat
and my closet is the jail) .

I ride and rope wild horses, too,
and bring them to my camp
(it's really just the 'lectric cord)
... uh oh, I broke a lamp!

Oops! Here comes the sheriff
and it looks like he is mad!
I'd better clean this mess up
('cause the sheriff's really ... Dad) .

If I had kids I would give them all your poems. Having been a teacher for ten years (in days gone by), I can appreciate these poems.

LOL, CJ, you cleverly capture the child's imagination vividly in brilliant, rhyming verse; you have a gift, and the reader is richer for reading you! BRAVA!

Oooooooooh, magic! Took me back to when i was about 5 (1959) when I remember getting a cowboy outfit for Christmas. And just like the wee boy here - same outfit too - i galloped around the house, even neighing like a horse, until dad had enough. Like Michelle, I too have been compelled to buy your book. Your children's poems bring out the child in me, and I sit reading them with a smile that strains at the cheeks. Oh, I wish i had more than two cheeks to take the strain!!!!!!

The best thing about children is their imagination. Of course you haven't lost that, have you CJ, you big kid. And I hope you don't
