She's Was A Cowgirl From Idaho

She was a cowgirl from Idaho

Anne Rose was this lil’ gal’s name

She wore a Stetson hat and a calico vest

Fancy snake skin boots were her fame

 

She wore tight blue jeans and a cowgirl buckle

In Pocatello she was known as quite the sassy miss

She knew all the cowboys in Boise and Twin Falls

They all know, cuz’ she was famous for her kiss  

 

Now don’t take this wrong

She was a spunky little miss

She'd surely put a potential lovers heart

Through quite a tough, rigorous test 

 

She was the famous Snake River Queen

Sweet as molasses, yet mean when it was needed

Many a cowboy got punched in the groin

Because the warnings she gave weren’t heeded

 

She was no bigger than a minute…

Standin’ barely five feet tall

But her hearts was as big as Texas

When she gave her love, she gave it all

 

 

Yes, she’s still that same cowgirl

But now her hair is turnin’ gray

Her delicate face showing wrinkles

She wonders where that young girl's gone

Wasn't she here just yesterday?

 

With her many memories fading

Her smile showin’ lines upon her face

Her sadness she hides down deep

Buried in her quiet state of grace  

 

 

She lost her only cowboy in September of 2009

He died right before her brown, tear filled eyes

She quietly placed a rose upon his chest

Kissed his lips and said...

Her final, sad goodbye

A really great poem Anne. It was very enjoyible to read. Makes me remember my youth back when we thought we was made of steel and was going to live forever. Yes, thinking back on those days and friends here, those that have moved away and those that have past on....it brings a smile to my face. Thank you for sharing this and rekindling those memories.

MG do you know I was born in Twin Falls, Idaho... coarse back then I was too young to know or appreciate a woman like this... at least she had some fun before her golden days... a fun poem and smooth flowing.
