John McCornack Poems

• One More Mile
  Give me the strength to travel one more mile To out in the country where people still farm To where there is still a sense of community With wheat fields, horses, plus many a barn
• Cloud Chief Horses
  I never had a horse at Cloud Chief Even though horses were in season My dad would say I ate like a horse So to save food that was the reason
• Double Pleasure
  Everyone loves a two for one deal Expecially a two horse layout view For it has a beginning and the end Where double pleasure becomes true
• Mona Lisa
  Join me in a cyber tour of the city of Paris Where Napoleon used to rule and call home That city filled with history and excitement For on their streets Americans love to roam
• Being An Okie
  One of our nations best kept secrets Is the advantage of an Okie lifestyle A place where life can be rewarding Where everyone has reason to smile
• 3 Trees
  Down by the North Canadian south of Route 66 Sunset memories in my soul come flooding back Glorious colors, from deep turquoise to hot pink Fill the western sky while the wild ducks quack
• Spring
  Spring is everywhere, On the ground and in the air. We can find spring in water, And feel it in an old barn!
• Rain
  Rain..Rain.. Aren’t you coming back.. A rain already here. Please don`t let me alone with a rain...
• The Road Of Life
  In the quiet country side out east of Cloud Chief My family waited for my birth with anticipation Dust was extra thick as we were in the dust bowl But through it all I added one to the population
• Love The Blue
  Somewhere out between Yukon and El Reno is Banner It is a great place to travel when clouds form in the sky It is this area where many farm families still call home I love to drive their roads and watch a sunset intensify
• Venus De Milo
  Did you wonder how Venus could milk a cow Since obviously, she does not have any arms She could hold the bucket between her legs But she would be useless around diary farms
• Beginning Today
  I will no longer worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow will always be there, Waiting for me to make the most of it. But I cannot make the most of tomorrow
• Ice
  Ice on that far distance horizon Ice that paints the country side ice that bathes the horse barns Ice that serves as a winter guide
• Algebra Equation
  My Grandpa taught me: Don't worry about the future. But know that worrying is as effective
