Oh on our rocking horses the things we use to do,<\/span><\/p>\n

Across the wild plain we rode having fun we two,<\/span><\/p>\n

My little sister at my side she rode along the way,<\/span><\/p>\n

Her horse was a beauty and she rode her every day,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She was a cute little girl wearing a six gun at her side,<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you true here and now she filled me with pride,<\/span><\/p>\n

She quickly drew her gun as fast as anyone nearby,<\/span><\/p>\n

With Kay-ee at my side I felt safe under our blue sky,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When morning came each day she\u2019d tell me what to do,<\/span><\/p>\n

She grabbed blankets to saddle up ol\u2019 brown and ol\u2019 blue,<\/span><\/p>\n

It seems that was the names our steeds wore this day,<\/span><\/p>\n

Powerful horses they were made of wood, iron and clay,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We chased Bonnie and Clyde although out of date,<\/span><\/p>\n

Our act was mesmerizing though we were often late,<\/span><\/p>\n

Kay-ee scolded me at times as sweetly as she could,<\/span><\/p>\n

Not truly a scolding but of care when packing as I should,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I must have all my bullets and my guns must shine too,<\/span><\/p>\n

Some days we dressed the same the best we two could do,<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh the fun we use to have riding our horses all day long,<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know the words now but we often sang a song,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A tear has come into my heart as well it\u2019s filled my eyes,<\/span><\/p>\n

Age has overtaken me, in truth my age won\u2019t permit lies,<\/span><\/p>\n

As time closes my path I reflect in thought of those I love,<\/span><\/p>\n

I love Sis Kathie most of all and she\u2019ll join me in the above,<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019ll see my little rocking horse at the gates awaiting me,<\/span><\/p>\n

Perhaps once more it will come to life just for me to see,<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll grab a blanket to saddle up, to ride to mom and dad,<\/span><\/p>\n

And at last I\u2019ll rejoin the best parents a little boy ever had.<\/span><\/p>\n

The end, I love you Kathie<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
