out by the barn.
Stands a simple fence
as old as the farm.
The wire is rusted
the metal all twisted.
From years of abuse
and tries to fix it.
The planks are cracked
faded, and undone.
From the years
fightin’ the sun.
There is a piece
missing from a board.
Caused by a mustang
to wild to board.
The posts are old
and stand somewhat askew.
They still hold up
they still hold true.
For looks don’t matter
when time mounts.
But how you stand
that truly counts.
