Barrel Racer Poem

I Am A Barrel Racer

By: Erin Boyce

I AM a barrel racer

I am dedicated to the sport 

I am the gear shifter from barrel to barrel 

I am the steering wheel as we dig around the barrels 

I am the fan that cheers on other riders 

I am the muscular quarter horse that loves its job

I am the truck and trailer that hauls the team all summer

I am the dirt that is is dug up as the horses tear around the can 

I am the horn that is gripped tightly as we spin around the barrel

I am the ribbon that hangs from my saddle

I am the brave rider 

I am the crowd that cheers everyone on 

I AM a barrel racer
