Love it. My whole life as a child at the Saturday matinee movies flashed before me :-) This is a testament to meter doesn't matter. The AABB rhyme is solid throughout and the end result is so entertaining - DJ

Great job, Earl. I just knew this was you when I voted. Congratulations. I came back to vote because I somehow missed this important thing. Forgive me? I fell off my horse!
Always my very best to you, Earl.

Cool. Whose autograph is on the photo? Learned something as well. Sales forecasts can be stretches as well so no problem stretching. New here and not sure why the 150 review character requirement.

Joh Wayne's. Not sure why 150 characters either, I think its ludicrous on short poems that only use 17 syllables, I appreciate you taking the time to read and review my work
Comment from Aliene
This was a fun read. Creative and brought back memories--I'm impressed that you remembered all those horse/rider combinations. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Brett Matthew West
Good tribute to these characters, and especially the horses that made them famous. Well crafted poem also presents what most motion pictures today lack, a real good sidekick. Good entry for this contest.

I have no more stars to give to me this is a winner
The artwork you choose to go with your poem is marvelous and goes perfect with your poem
They both blew my mind, I remember each and everyone of the cowboys and their horses.

You did well. Those cowhands were definitely Western and you blended them together very easily. The poem is well crafted despite what you say.

This certainly deserves six stars which I have already uses. This is not only
good rhyme, but it brings back memories of my youth. The photograph of the Duke sets off the whole poem. I met and shook hands with the Duke,
what a thrill that was.

He was all man in life as he was in movies.

I see your accompanying artwork is the late great John Wayne( Rooster Cogburn) sitting on Dollor I believe.
a Nice walk through the old wild west, offering up the names of the movie legends and their mares. Well done and good luck!

While all you say is true, those of us who watched tv on Saturday 's got to relive our childhoods and chuckle, while reading this tongue in cheek ode to another life in another time. Yippee! Liked it!

What did you find that rated a four star? From your review, I would have thought you would give me 5 stars, if not six.

Sorry I thought a four star meant needed work. You mentioned all the things I would have critiqued. Inspire of the weaknesses, I still like it, I wanted you to know
