Girls Are Tops

Girls Are Tops 

Go Figure? Figure Skaters,
Girls twirl and amaze,
Girls wow and graze,
Over the ice.
Then over the ice,
First toe loops,
Then double axels,
And for seconds,
They never come down.

Go Figure? Figure Skaters
Feet reach back, toes point at
“Trail Blazed Ice”.
Hands reach for, fingers point at
“Virgin Ice”.

Go Figure! Figure Skaters,
Feet circling, spiraling inwards
Hands circling, spiraling upwards
Spinning! Spinning!! Spinning!!!
Faster! Faster!! Faster!!!
“Man, these Girls are Tops!”

Panagiota Romios Date: 2/12/2019 3:38:00 PM Liked this one very much. I, also am amazed at the spirals and grace. I skated when I lived in the Midwest and attended ice shows. Such beauty on ice, such grace,,, I also liked the title of the Poem. I love hockey players, too. Totally different of course. But a talent all of their own. Nice you always say you want some feedback...Shows you want to grow as a poet! Panagiota Login to Reply Noel Flater Date: 2/13/2019 10:04:00 AM Panagiota, Thanks for your good feedback. It encourages me to write.

Damian Keady Date: 1/17/2019 3:41:00 PM Hi Noel.. I like this lots... reminds me of when I used to get on the ice.. Then they knocked the rink down and built a load of yuppie apartments on the site.. But yep.. it was the place to go for a night out.. So many great visuals in your words for me..
