Dear Cowgirl: Letters & Poems
 
I wrote these poems over many years on the road, living out of my truck, behind the chutes at bronc ridings and while trotting out in the morning when I needed to remember who I was and where I wanted to go in life.
 
These pages are for women who have rebuilt themselves, loved deeply, and kept going when life was heavy…or are starting out from square one today.
 
Each ‘Dear Cowgirl’ is a love letter to every woman out there who needs it, and I hope you find some love within these pages.
 
All my love,
 
-Adrian
 
 
Dear Cowgirl: 100 Poems of Hope
 
 
“Dear Cowgirl” began as a letter to a young woman struggling with the real-life effects of abuse.
 
Today, it has grown into a social movement, a bestselling book, an online community and blog, and the common thread of hope binding together those who refuse to give up.
 
This highly anticipated second book contains 100 poems of deeply personal reflections observing the human spirit under fire and comes four years after Adrian’s first book “Dear Cowgirl: Letters to Women” was published. As both an author and a survivor, Adrian uniquely examines the challenges that confront so many people throughout their lifetime. She continues to share the precious hope she has found; as only a cowgirl can.
