Ski Trip
February 25, 2008
I went one a ski trip this weekend. It was awesome, so I decided to write a poem about it.
Ski Hill
The lift ascends and up the beautiful hill it goes,
Slowly. up
Faster now it goes, up and
Then at the top I slide to the edge of the seat and ski
down.
I look down the slope and plan my route
first right
then left
past the pole
around the tree.
up
At the bottom once more and up then
Up another lift to the top and up then down
I never stop to look out, only down.
Then up at the top, I look out and I see
beauty.
Beauty with which my treks up and down cannot compare.
There is so much more.
To my eyes I see how myopic my path.
And my soul.
