Great rhyming. Flows well. Loved the story and the humor. So original and creative. Painted a great picture and took us right out there on the old trail.

This is an interesting poem that the author has created with this piece of writing. This was a good trick to play on Rusty the Rustler. It reminds me of when I was in German and a friend's house got burgled. My friend (Army) found him and beat him till the police arrived. He was glad to see the police take him away too. LOL.

Thanks. Glad you liked my poem. And good for your friend! I have no sympathy for burglars who get beaten by the homeowner or chewed up by the dog.

What a great story in a poem! With excellent rhyme, you made your poem very 'visual, so I was able to go along for the ride.

Well done, and good luck in the contest.

Well done. This is a fine story in a poem.
Great alliterating names with Jerry Jing-Jang, spurs a jangling, and Old Rusty the Rustler, I guess he was getting a little rusty at the end.
Excellent meter, the poem flow well
And spot on rhyming in the aabb pattern
I was a little confused with line 7, seemed like he caught himself, instead of JJJ catching him.
Excellent picture to poem match, nicely framed in green pasture color
Well done, good luck.

Great episode, Cindy. Good rhyme and rhythm. I love this part:

So he roped a heifer to use as a sheild << typo on SHIELD
And quietly crept across the field.

Verrrry clever of him. Too bad he didn't think about the bedroll trick sooner. The ending is really cute, too... he was happy to see jail!

Thanks, and thanks for catching that typo. Oops! I really do know it's i before e. But you know, JJJ can never hang on to Rusty for long. What would he do without him?

reply by Phyllis Stewart on 22-Jun-2015

Good point... he'd have no purpose. :)

Nothing like a real good Western story. Always enjoy reading them. Some times the outlaws are not real hard to outwit. Well done and means I will be checking out your portfolio for more.
