Crooners Jam

Lotta Fun
and Lutz Salchow
where out in the
lobby romancing.
She wore a Cot Gamoga
type skirt. Had all the guys
even Clemp looking
we told her to scram come back
tomorrow.
Her coach will need to tell
both they made the team
See was to
Whogga: Whogga for me..
The Tuba and the bass player
are here for rehearsal.
A fabulous night
for dancing!
I heard they had an indoor rink at
there home: but it's nothing
compared to thiis place!

Premium Member The Figure Skater

One day
Good day

Young girl
Sweet girl

Who dream
Not scream

To be 
And see

Herself
Not shelf

Fulfilled
Not chilled

Tumble
Not fall

Jump high
Aim high

Gyrate
And skate

To learn
Not spurn

Toe loop
Not hoop

Flip jump
Loop jump

To flip
And skip

Upright
Spin right

Then edge
Not wedge

Half turn
Not burn

Biellmann
Spin wan

Lutz jump
Not hump

Lay back
Not sack

Spiral
Tidal

Axel
So well

Twizzle
Dazzle

Camel
Not swell

Salchow
And show

Quick toes
Strong toes

Brave heart
One heart

Skating
Swirling

With pride
Not hide

A dream 
That stream

And seen
On screen

Skater
Blazer

Bow...
Wow!

Premium Member Ballerina's On Ice

This is the Winter Olympics
years of training for a shot.
The best in the world
will go over the top.
Gold, Silver, or bronze
fills only three spots.
It's the Winter Olympics
Show the world what you've got.

At the Ski Half Pipe
the most dangerous ride.
Adrenaline is relevant
yet taken in stride.
Express an element
Acrobats of the sky.
Amplitude so Prevalent
for Gold they fly.
At the ski halfpipe
the most dangerous ride.

Ballerinas on how ice
how graceful they are.
They come for one thing
from near and far.
They skate to win Gold 
and wish upon a star.
Ballerinas on ice
How graceful they are.

Supple as Satin, Agile as Cat.
they spin a triple axel
on balance to land.
The edge of a salchow
goes back-to-back,
A Dance with your shadow
No Chance you will crash.
Supple as Satin, Agile as a Cat.

Dancing On Ice

Not a more beautiful sight to see then two dancing on ice
holding each others hand while bowing to the crowd
Starting their harmonic swings with such grace and harmony
Then twirling and spinning with loop jumps through the air 
 
Catching her with only inches to spare excitement to much to bear
The sake blades shaving the ice as they create a lutz loop
The edge jump salchow is continued then blended into Axel
While the wind from their speed blows their tassels though the air

With the score of nine all across the board winners they become
Figure Skating is their life a love for ice with beauty beyond compare
The strength and agility involved in preforming such moves while skating
Is underrated by watching the ease they display putting on this ice show
