Cow Cockies


dverse




they don't own books
they are not impressed
by anything other than a good bloke

the swearing in aussie drawl would melt
a curling iron and change hair colouring

they call a spade a spade
love their blue cattle dogs
and red kelpies

snorkers beers and rollies
by the camp fire under the stars
is their version of heaven
cattle lowing in the distance

their ripper jokes have you rolling
on the floor clutching your sides

they are rough and rugged
but anyone finding themselves stranded 

would get a helping  hand

even if they are not wearing a short skirt
with fish net stockings

  3. Wonder if I would get any help in fishnet stockings.... I guess there are limits also for Australian Cowboys.

  4. Love this! Nothing like a clear, if rough spoken, Aussie cowboy. And yes they love their dogs, horses and cattle. Great write...nice close too! ;-) Thanks for joining in on the Cowboy Poetry prompt.

  5. That's the truth all right...you never sit for long on the side of the road in the bush always someone there to help...unlike the cities. Love it!
