Book excerpt: The Editors At Gibbs Smith, who have seen as many cowboy poems as a cowboy sees sunsets--Compiled this rousing edition from more than 1, 200 submissions. Each poem leads you down the bridle trail, all quiet and calm as can be. But when you reach the last line, it wakes you up and gets you hootin' an' hollerin' for more so hitch yourself up to the craze that's been building for more than a decade. Bronc Rides I know some boys can ride those broncs, Allowin' no chance to throw 'em. To tell about the tough ones I've rode Would take half as long as this poem. When I'm atop a buckin' horse I cannot permit defeat, So I stretch the reins, and choke the horn, And spank 'em--with my seat. Now horses must learn discipline, And buckin' sure is wrong. But I must be softhearted, 'Cuz I never spank 'em long.
