Skateboarding

Sister Lucille enjoys skateboard riding
Weather and her arthritis providing
Lucille has skinned-up knees
From banging into trees
She has never mastered her colliding.

Ann Foster Date: 7/15/2022 12:50:00 PM I have not either... lol... I am a clutz... at times... but I still go. So much fun. I love Lucille... my kind of girl... Well done. Ann Login to Reply L Milton Hankins Date: 7/15/2022 1:51:00 PM Thanks, Ann. She's purely fictional, but she's the kind of woman I really admire. Not afraid of adventure!

Terry Flood Date: 7/14/2022 12:24:00 PM I’m contemplating whether Sister Lucille is your sister or a nun. Either way she’s a hell of a girl. Fun write, Milt.

Tom Cunningham Date: 7/14/2022 10:55:00 AM She's a bit of a daredevil is Lucille lol, even a grazed knee doesn't stop her. Tom Login to Reply L Milton Hankins Date: 7/14/2022 12:57:00 PM That she is, Tom. That she is!

Jeff Kyser Date: 7/14/2022 10:09:00 AM 'Tis more enjoyment in a ride Where head and ground don't coincide! Ha, enjoyed this one, Milt! Login to Reply L Milton Hankins Date: 7/14/2022 10:14:00 AM 'Tis so true, Jeff. Lucille does rather well considering her age. Most of us don't try those kinds of sports! I'm anxious to see what she will try next!
