Skating After Dark

I still get the body memories of that ease and flow, though I was never really good, just having fun. Almost fell through myself! Big lake, big crack across the entire middle, dark night, but I saw it just in time! I'm glad you just got wet! Elizabeth

When a teenager of 6 years I went night skating on a small pond and fell through the ice. Fortunately the pond's depth where I fell through was no more than two feet. BTW I use to be a figure skater in my twenties, my favorite sport. At 85 now I'm grateful to be walking, never mind skating. / Maurice

Few words with much said. The wonderful night, the ice, the moon, oh my... Have a blessed day........................

Nice! Love the feeling it is evokes, walking after sunset on a winters day, coming home. Wanting warmth… Love it, a simple image, that evoke many memories. Thanks

Elizabeth, your penning instant a blessed presence to convey good tidings--satisfaction, Aloha William

such a lovely apercu.....and the vision held in the magic of the moon....loved it

I enjoyed reading this one. I am sure a beautiful scene but very dangerous one. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

Excellent imagery!

I love poems like this, which allow me to see a beautiful scene quite clearly. Evelyn :)

I always love hearing from you, Gersh! Elizabeth

Perfection in a snapshot, Elizabeth. Haiku as it's meant to be! A pleasure to read. Thanks!

Is the moon not the skater here?

I can just see the ice reflecting in the moonlight. Hope your new year is off to a good start Elizabeth. Tom

I can almost feel her skating towards the moon. Amazing picture.
