Question: A Poem - Rounding Up Horses - Do You Like!?
Rounding up horses
in a canyon
Feral, unbranded
100$ a head
Corralled in trailers
tight fit
Pivoting turns bend
into curves
Prosperous day's work
sweat drips
Vultures circle near
scavengers knowWww@QuestionHome@Com

Very good!. I love to watch horses!. Kansas City has a century-old world-class equine event called "The American Royal!." (Hence the name of our baseball team)!. About 10 years ago, we went to the "Concert for Champions" where all the class winners get to parade around while the Symphony plays!.

There is a class called "Liberté" where the horses perform without a bridal or trainer!.

A mare and her colt came out into the center of the ring and she TAUGHT the colt how to act like a show horse, for ten minutes!. It was the most amazing thing I ever witnessed!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Human vultures/scavengers!? I've been waiting for another "Horse" poem!. This one is very descriptive, but seems to end on a negative note!. I hope the next "Horse" poem will be more positive!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
