Texas Poem by Sheena Blackhall

The Tigua & Rodeos
Brownsville, oil rigs, Houston
Fort Worth, Dallas, Guadalupe
Rio Grande, Austin

Corpus Christi, ranches, fun
Space Centre & Laredo
San Antonio & fun
El Paso, Colorado

Texas longhorn, lone star flag
Deserts & jackrabbits
The Alamo, tacos, & lassoos
Davie Crockett, broncos

Spanglish, canyons, roadrunners
Horned toad & Armadillo
Tornado Alley, barbecues
Buffalos, Amarillo

The Pan Handle & Cadillacs
Mavericks, free tailed bats
Cotton, Willie Nelson, Blues
Cowboys, ten gallon hats

Texas Rangers, six shooters
Butch Cassidy, Red River
Buddy Holly: Texas is
A Music & oil giver
