Go Ahead, Make My Day

Tall and lean, naturally mean,
Handsome, rugged demeanor.
Early cowboy of series fame,
Movie icon and director.
A Raw and Rowdy early beginning,
Never an ounce of fear.
Yates, Kelly, Josey and Harry,
Fists full of roles through the years.
Any which way, from drifter to hero,
Characters to make one's day.
Eiger, Escape, Enforcer and Bronco,
Screen legends all done his own way.
Often originator of famous one-liners,
Forgiven was honored as Munny's last stand.
Callahan's Dirty magnum sidewinders,
Laid the framework for Kowalski in Gran.
In the same line of other old-timers.
Newman, Sutherland, Hackman and Jones.
Terrific director of films of his own.
