Bow-Legged Pete

There once was a lanky cowpoke named Pete, Who, when he walked got tangled in his feet! He'd spent years ridin' his horse, Becomin' bow-legged, of course! Looked like a pair of pliers pacin' the street! Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired All Rights Reserved

Nice poem Robert. I guess all cowboys in Texas are Bow - legged. They just have to do it the cowboy way. Thanks for sharing. Lucilla
