We're looking for vintage photos and contemporary photos: family photos, images of where you live and work, and the area around you.  If you have a photo to share, email us for information about sending it to us. Each week, we'll post selected photos from those received. We'll also share some photos posted previously elsewhere at CowboyPoetry.com.   Send your photo.  Email us for information about sending it to us.     If you enjoy this feature, you may also be interested in our  Western Memories Project, the personal recollections— many with photos— contributed by BAR-D visitors.  Your stories and photos are welcome.

February 2, 2009

 

Poet Babs Hamilton shares a photo taken in November, 2008 at her Roedham House Ranch in Deleau, Manitoba. She describes it in poetry:

On a day in early November
As the north wind blew cold and strong
We knew that old winter’s stellar bite
Too soon would be coming along.

There appeared a glorious rainbow
For a moment the rain did hold
Only to show the world around us
Our homestead was the Pot of Gold.

 

  Babs Hamilton shared previous photos of the Manitoba prairie here in a Picture the West entry.
