The old days, what we change for progress, and what is progress? More materiality than ever, more obfuscation, anxieties, less time to expend we our love ones, at least, quality time.

Sounds like the life of the cowgirl is different from the cowboy. This is the first poem I have read that mentions Walmart. This is enjoyable to read and it is wonderful to read about the cowgirl.

It's bitter sweet to let go of the dreams we started with when faced with the reality we are left with. Pearls for Walmart - excellent image, this line captured the essence of the poem for me. Beautifully done.

Excellent writing done on this poem about a Cowgirl's Life.
Nice picture of it shown too. Gee, I'd hate I had to endure being on a horse!

Your poem is lovely and so heartrending. She obviously has a very rich and rewarding life. Maybe not the life some would choose, but still very rich.

I love this poem, excellent job.

I felt kind of sad for her after reading this. It seems like her life has turned out different than what she had expected, or the promises made by her cowboy. Of course we are all accountable for our own happiness.

Your poem as a whole, is indeed well written and speaks to the reader through your ability to capture emotions in some of your more blunt stanzas, such as, life she must endure. However, the flow of the piece itself was a little coarse, I felt as if you were able to channel your art more directly there would have been more stanzas like the one I made reference too. To be alone, in your space to write, unattended to, is to embark on your journey in all depths.
