[stylist] Poem for Nebraska friends

[Barbara Hammel]

Once when my husband was coming home from someplace in Nebraska he had to 
stop on the highway for a herd of cattle.  And they were loath to move.

Attached is "Nebraska" a poem.
I wrote this poem as I traveled by car across Nebraska on my way to Silicone 
Valley, California - in 1991.
I found it as I am sifting through my poetry archives. I did a bit of 
tweaking to tighten it up today - thus the copyright change from 1999 to 
2013.

As we traveled my husband was driving and as we crossed over one state after 
another, I was jotting down imagery and notes that later were crafted into 
poems.
