I
like to rhyme so I thought writing my corrido was a lot of fun. I learned
things about my dad I didn't know before; things he did when he was little.
I didn't write everything in my corrido. I didn't think I was going to get
it done but I worked real hard and finally finished it. It was hard putting
it together. It took a long time and I was very happy at the end. I wanted
to do it in Spanish because I thought my dad would like it better. I think
my dad will be very proud when he finds out that my corrido is done.
My corrido rhymes every forth verse. I had to use the dictionary to look for words that would describe my dad and would rhyme. I changed words around many times until I found the right ones. Some of the words I found, I had never heard before. I learned lots of new words and their meanings. My dad loves Mexican music. When he hears the music he dances all around the house. I am happy I wrote the corrido about my dad, he's the most special person to me. - Rodolfo Moraga |
