The bull attackA Poem by NirmalaThis happened when I was a little girl and I was reminded of it as I happen to visit the place again. The bull attack
They
said it was the temple bull Broke
his chain and ran amok Charging
down a small hillock Three
little girls in pinafores Saw the
dust as it rose above Hooves,
horns and blazing eyes
Their
little legs not fast enough Mine
turned jelly and I fell Into a
thorn bush who could tell The harm
those horns might inflict Came
nearer and nearer to my face We
stared and then he turned away © 2012 NirmalaAuthor's Note
