The Ballad of Desire-re
By: Fee
I could have done things different
I might have found a better way
With Whiskey dreams and saddle sores
I went looking for my little stray
She was wilder than a Texas wind
With legs at least a mile long
Her liquid eyes were ocean deep
Too me she could do no wrong
Hair as golden as a prairie wheat field
She went by the name of Desrir-re
I met her in a Dakota dance hall
Said she would always love just me
When she smiled she lit the heavens
Made every man’s heart skip a beat
Then one day I found her with another
It was then I understood her dancing feet
Three bullets from a six-gun
One for he
One for she
One for me
Love struck I had chased the wind
Now in graves will lay us three…
I love the Old West myself, I'll be comin' around the mountain
into the bar, through the swinging doors, hanging onto my bolla, swinging in with drinks in hand and smile, to your table!Before all this happened/your poem!
I have some catchin' up do in the reading and feeling dept. with you and many...
STAY WARM, Happy and Healthy!

You can still see pictures [like the one you included with this poem] in many old saloons here in the West. Are you sure you weren't an old west cowboy in a past life?
