When I was a kid I liked to skate fast Not on frozen ice But on roller skates Down a great big hill We were a group Of skating kids I had pink wheels My friend had blue A steep hill Oh delight We just went Faster Faster Down ! When I was grown up And so dignified I wanted to skate Not on frozen ice But on roller skates The hill looked steep My courage gone Took off the skates Oh forever Falling fear Speeding fear Crash for sure See girls Gothic Watch ! _____________________________ February 17, 2016 Poetry/Diminished Hexaverse /Gothic Girls Don't Roller Skate Copyright Protected, ID 16-758-812-0 All Rights Reserved.

The high rise followed by the irreversible slow down is picturesque in the poem. Congratulations....

Those long ago days when nothing could hurt us, then we grow up and understand the realities of life. There is a lot of pain out there and the fear can be overwhelming.

James, thanks for visiting, yes when we are kids we feel indestructible, after a few broken bones, we start to think... aaaah, maybe not... any ways I have terrible balance now...
