Skiing

Sliding down snow-covered hills
keeping the glide going gives thrills
in sweet awareness enjoy the grand views
in concert with exercise, and inspiring muse
nothing better than an escape- just let go of fear
great rush of wildness and freedom on a day crystal clear

Connie Pachecho Date: 1/27/2023 2:52:00 PM I agree this is a great poem but I can see you forgot the Compulsory phrase in text - snowy week according to the contest rules. I think it would have fit fine in line 5. Login to Reply Constance La France Date: 1/28/2023 5:38:00 AM Connie, thank you so much for your visit, compliment and comment, yes I messed up, but I still like my poem, and yes, it was my attempt at a hill, lol, blessing, Constance Connie Pachecho Date: 1/27/2023 2:55:00 PM Oh how did I miss that. Your poem is also shaped like a hill ... wow.

Paul Callus Date: 1/25/2023 7:25:00 AM A delightful skiing themed Acrostic with lovely rhymes to go with it, Constance. It provides a 'rush' to the reader. I wish I was there on those slopes. ~ Regards // paul Login to Reply Constance La France Date: 1/27/2023 1:03:00 PM Paul, thank you so much for the visit, compliment and comment, blessings, Constance

I just created an account here on poetry soup. Not a premium member yet but I am finding it hard to submit my poem basically on the categories option. Please how do I go about it. I'll really appreciate your response Constance La France Date: 1/24/2023 12:17:00 PM Kehinde, thank you so much for the visit and compliment, Constance
