Every fall in August my hometown hosts a small local rodeo. I look forward to it. With the second half of July coming on, my thoughts are turning towards the fall and the rodeo. It's a great family fun time! Even for non-farming families, it is fun. You should look around your hometown and enjoy a good time at the rodeo. They usually have a special feature time for the kids. All those kids who wish to participate in this, usually love it. A piece of ribbon is taped onto a calf or a sheep or goat. The animal is let loose in the arena and the children chase it until one of them can pull off the tape and win the prize. It's a fun time! SO, check out your local rodeo, you will be glad you did.
The Rodeo Bull
(Reading level: grade 4.6)
The Rodeo Bull…
Big, powerful, and determined,
Even with blunted
horns,
He brings pain and suffering,
To the cowboys who
dare,
To challenge his
power.
The Rodeo Bull…
Quietly awaits his
challenger.
What does he think
of,
In the hours and
minutes prior,
To the eight long seconds
of battle,
Between man and
beast?
