TIED FOR SECOND RUNNER UP!! My Tribute: One family united against all foeswhatever they became Bonanza The Cartwrights took it on The right over wrong prevailed. all over the land.
First came Ben Pa to us allHe was brave and sure Bonanza
Adam was next dark and handsome Smart and brave was he
Hoss was next loved by all who he met and knew Bonanza his love for man and for beast was quite evident clear and through.
Next comes the one loved the best by this group I know
Joseph was the youngest We knew where he was in his younger days INTO TROUBLE Then Splitting wood:In His room ;
across his fathers knee!!!.
As he grew then we knew where he was again: bonanza in the arms of a girl fighting in a brawl trying to explain it to Pa.
Through it all the laughs and tears we have watch them grow Bonanza Our love continues for these fine young men of the PonderosaRoy and Griff Candy and Jamie HopSing, Clem all there too.
to stick together Bonanza fight with oneyou fought them all Till the battle won. We loved it then We love it now More Bonanza Forever in our hearts The Cartwrights four Part of our family SURE! Janet Bell May, 1999 AND Bonanarchy by Barb

AND OUR WINNER AND THE OFFICIAL BONANARCHIST POET!!! What is the greatest Kingdom in the world? Bonanarchy! A collection of fans, All devoted to their man, What a wondrous society!
Who rules the land, Stamping it with antler brand? King Deerthur! Never fear; she's not alone; There are heirs to the throne. All hail to the BOD!
Many knights gather 'round, Just to lend their aid And fight for right With all their might. That's why knights are made.
Who are these ladies Serving in the court? The handmaids! Each one is known By the man she calls her own, Our tribute to chivalry.
Some choose Adam, Hoss or Ben And on them love bestow. Most prefer the green-eyed lad Known as Little Joe.
We all know There is only one show, Bonanza! That deserves all our praise, So its name we upraise With devotion and loyalty.
We're the lovin'est, laughin'est, looniest band That ever took Asylum in cyberland. That's why we call it Bonanarchy! Sharon Kay Bottoms May 1999
