Sagebrush Scholar

She speaks of paths where once the bison roamed A history told, a future honed [Verse 1] Now she's come so far from the start Her passion for the plains, a work of art The wind it whispers through the aspen trees A song of pride, a soft-spoken please Whoa, your talk was sure and stronger Your study on the bison, it's leading you home And triumph, oh triumph Is more than just some paper talking Your knowledge is walking through the Rockies so bold [Chorus] Don't your thoughts soar high when the wind's just right? She's standing firm where the prairies meet the sky She's got that glow, like the sun riding high [Verse 2] With every word, she's painting scenes so wild Her voice, the brush, nature's every grateful child The crowd, they listen, hanging on every truth The bison's tale, interwoven with her youth Whoa, in those fields where the sagebrush blends Sharin' wisdom like the river winds, it wends Her work ain't just for grades or fleeting fame It's for the beasts, the land, preserve their name In Fort Collins, winds a-blowin', skies so wide She stands before the crowd, her heart can't hide
