A Miracle for a Vaquero
As I was about to win the rodeo game, I heard the cheers of the people growing louder and louder as I approach the finish line. Instead of winning, I squinted into reality and the sun’s rays peeking through the window. As I got my hat, poncho, and pads on my legs, I was thinking about my dream. And, I thought, “Would I be able to win the rodeo game today?” My hopes were filling up, when, with a sigh, realized that I never had enough practice and did not attend many contests, so the chance of embarrassing myself was high.
I opened the door to my stable, where my white racing horse was waiting. It neighed lovingly at me, and I smiled back. I petted my horse, fed it, and went inside my cabin to have some breakfast. …show more content…
There I spotted a deep ditch, nearly went into it, and also dodged a steer calf. I was so into my dream that I had last night, that my horse reared up its legs because it heard a slithering snake in the bushes. I tried to turn tail, but it was too late; the venomous snake bit the left rear hoof of my horse, and it slithered away into the bushes. I was terrified beyond measure, and my horse stumbled back out of the bushes. From panic, I asked all of the townspeople in the village what I could do with my horse, but they didn’t have any antidotes.
Finally, one vaquero had some wise knowledge about snakes, and told me that the certain species of snake that bit my horse can bite it again, and all the venom will be gone, but it was a little too late, because the venom was spreading to my horse’s thigh.
I sprinted to the bushes, going crazy and thinking that I could find the snake again. With sheer luck, I found a different snake, but the same species. I hastily squeezed it by the throat, sprinted out of the bushes, and found out to my horror that my horse’s two rear legs were giving up. I forced the snake to bite the rear left leg. The vaquero said by the snake biting the horse’s rear leg the horse will produce cells in the body that can fight the venom, similar to antidote treatment.
“He will be weak, and your horse has to lie down in your stable to rest. After a few days, he will be ready to walk
