Victoria Anderson-Throop Poet Acrostic

Rodeo Acrostic

RODEO

raise that hand above your head and give a mighty yell
on that bouncing bovine you might meet your bucking hell
devil eyes will hold you and he’s got you in his spell
each second you hold on will mean you ride a little more
one more minute and you’ll have the top bull rider score

David Fisher January 21, 2013 at 7:02 PM I always thought of trying the rodeo-just to see how long can hold... but seeing how the devil eyes hold as hard as the rider tries to- well I'm glad I never tried. Victoria Anderson-Throop January 22, 2013 at 1:43 PM my cousin rode and as a teen ager I followed him around thrilled to watch but happy that i was a girl...

Jack Ellison January 21, 2013 at 6:10 PM Sure can relate to this one. Back in 2005, my wife and I visited her brother and his wife in Calgary, Alberta. While there, we attended the Calgary Stampede... quite a show! You describe the broncho riding very well! Hugs, Jack xox Victoria Anderson-Throop January 22, 2013 at 1:44 PM have also been to the Stampede twice--but most of my experience was small rodeos in South Dakota and North Dakota. The excitement is some of the best drama around!
