Don'T Ride Em Cowboy

A cowboy is thrown from his horse
Crash landing in dense prickly gorse
He's screaming so loud
It draws quite a crowd
The ‘bucking feast’ - shot dead of course!

Perhaps it was the rider who should’ve been shot for wearing spurs. Lol Jan.

poor bucking beast. hey, Jan, it's so good to see you around. I was thinking just the other day, what happened with you? My dear dog Snickers had to be put to sleep yesterday . My husband is taking it very poorly and it's all so sad. Anyway, I have my topic for the ode contest now. I hope to write something to do justice to my sweet dog's memory
