In the Cowboy Poetry Book, "In If Old Things Could Talk You Could Hear Most Anything," John writes about things such as fences, gates, houses, barns, windmills, boots, etc., from the perspective of what these inanimate objects would say if they could talk. Added features to the book are historical Midwestern photos taken by John during his travels, and are the subjects of the poems. Imagine what an old pair of Boots might say about their first bronc ride, or how they felt when their owner took them 'boot scootin'. Imagine an old cellar describing the way it came to be, and how it proudly protected the family from the storm. What does a 1946 model grain truck tell us about it's ride to town with a young lad of 12 at the wheel? Laced with humor, happiness, history, sadness and love, the poems will melt into your heart and as you meditate on them you will want to share them over and over with your family and friends.
