2022 Traditions Contest: Ode to skating
January 3, 2022
I remember when
I was new to
This world
couldn’t face
it’s cold
I fell over and over
On the icy stretches
At first you guys
Helped me up
Until I learnt
To skate
Carving my path
Out of the world’s frost
Soaring through swirls of snow
Wind rushing through my jacket
All together,warm smiles in chilly air
Pure
Joy
The memory preserved
Forever by the ice
Glinting in the sun
My little sister
Waddles close
Awkward
After a few steps and falls
We glide past you both
You gave us the
Greatest gift of all
We fly
