Turquoise Bill, SASS #39118 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I am sad to report that Judge U Harshly aka Bill Cookman, has headed for the final round-up. He was always fun to shoot with and his humor keep everyone in great spirits. It was my pleasure to get to shoot with him and enjoy his company. Here is a fitting poem as a tribute: A Cowboy Psalm Dear God, only You know when I'll reach the end of my trail, So I want you to know I'm grateful. A hundred times I've been thrown by life And a hundred times You've lifted me back in the saddle. Every morning I see Your smile in the sunrise over the prairie And taste Your breath in the sage on the wind. You put the aches in my bones at sunset to remind me that I'm still alive, And the stars in the midnight sky to keep me humble. I know that You love me. When I've thirsted You've been my drink And Your words have been my bread. You catch me when I tangle my spurs, You keep me from taking the crooked path. You gave Your Son for my immortal soul. And I know, Lord, that when I am judged You won't care how long I stayed on– But how well I rode. ©Copyright2002 Boston John Doucette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
