    Kent my dad is still with us at 70 and I pray for many more years of hunting, fishing and cooking over a campfire. Your poem makes me appreciate him even more. Thank you.

    Thank you Mr. Rollins, both of you, for being who you are. Kent your "Horseshoes in Heaven" is a refection of what I feel about my cherished times and lessons from men from a different generation and place. I am blessed to have had them in my life.My deepest respect.

    This brought tears to my eyes. My own sweet Daddy went home 6 years ago, and I bet they are conversing together now. Daddy was a pilot, but he grew up on a farm and I have watched him shoe a horse too.

    Brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful tribute to your Dad. My Dad grew up barefoot in north Georgia and the barn reminded me of properties in that area.

    This is about where I started years ago watching and learning! Love the cooking and info videos but a solid cowboy poem from a solid cowboy figure goes a log ways in my book. Keep up the good works…oh, and bring back some more of these!

    Done gone and got me thinkin bout horses in heaven & brought this scripture strong mind
    Rev 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Your right Kent, lots to tend to even in heaven.

    I just got word this mornin' of a cow man that I know... He's put in 90 years on earth and it seems now is his time to go.. he's been sleepin' for a couple days now and I can only hope as I sit here with tears in my eyes, that a merciful God will leave him to dream of his new ranch on the other side.

    Dear Kent:
    I just happened by and heard your poetic praise of your father. My father had a hard time, his daddy died when he was three back in 1915, times were hard back then for those in the Ozarks especially for those without a father, there was no welfare, it was "Root Hog or Die" and Dad's loss made him determined to be the father to us that he knew we needed so desperately. Dad didn't have much of a chance, but he rode the rails to California's Oil Fields and Cotton Patches, met my Mom who herself, one of 7 children, was also from the Ozarks; she from North West Arkansas, he from South Central Missouri, Daddy was self educated, what little education he had, reading was a real chore for him, ciphering and arithmetic was also tough for him. They didn't have much, their love for one another, and their love of the Lord, but they made it happen, they earned with the Lord's help, a good living and raised each of us children to love God, our family, our Country and to love and be thankful for the work the Good Lord gave us. No man was ever more richly blessed than myself and my brother and sister. I am encouraged by you and your willingness to express your feelings for your father. Know that we will all be together with our fathers soon when we go home to Glory and meet them there.
    God Bless You and Yours
    Merry Christmas
    Don Denison

    My Dad showed me how to live, but one of the greatest things my Dad ever did was showing me how to die. If I can die with the dignity and courage that he did, I'll have honored him.

      I do blacksmithing as a hobby and I use an anvil that’s made for farriers. You’re spot on, it’s got a distinctive ring to it! I would like to send you something that I know a Cowboy like you would appreciate, something for you and your wife. Where can I send it? It’s something I’ve hammered on my farriers anvil
