Skate Poems

Free-Wheeling

Found my space to roller skate
Like I did when I was eight ...
Round, round and round the rink
Flashing lights of blue and pink 

High above such trivial things
Skating the track of Saturn's rings,
Go, go, they can't catch me now
Once you learn, you never forget how

The music flows from far, far away
Down on Earth where records

To Late You Can'T Skate

to late you can't skate
you didn't make the team
sorry better luck next time
don't get mad at me
scored high on your
figure eight
but the night is over
put up your skates
too late you can't skate
the parties over
to late you can't skate
grab your skates and go on
we're open in the moring
ah quater to ten
but the night is over
I said

Ripe Time To Hate Kate

From time to time sets a bait,
Her patience she makes sure wait;
Over issues would she skate:
In sweet words the tempting state
And seek to mask thy sad fate!

It is not spurious her bet;
Her marked gift is a glass plate:
Something surely at real stake;
Time for you to right steps take,
Kate's to-be-voiced favors fake!

So, now it's clearly a

Helping Willy Skate

Mr. and Mrs. McWhiskers are helping Wily skate pure.
But if she didn’t grab him up, then dad did for sure. 
He almost took some tumbles, possibly three. 
Neither want him to scrape a paw or a knee. 

Why don’t you let him take a spill? An old observant guy suggested.
They gave him hateful looks that

My Dad Did Not Want To Roller Skate

My dad’s car was on the fritz
He got talked into roller skating.
I am twenty-two he argued.
Too old for it.
But they could walk there.

He noticed a young woman.
She could really skate.
Like him.
He kept watching her.
A voice said “She is the one”.
He had been looking for a wife.

He pursued her like a tiger.
Made friends with her brothers.
Stopped

Coral Skate Huitain

Flushed cheeks and filled with serene truth,  
on a lake of rose quartz I skate; 
Coral ice surrounds and starts to soothe
a warm smile slowly radiates; 
My temperature elevates
I do a spin and understand 
part of the dance is always fate;
If I slip hold onto my hand.

Skate

Counting snakes at stake.
Bringing a skate
to roll straight out
of my mind

Counting doubts and thoughts.
I wanna see it let out.
Living the experience
of being out of place

Vivid colors
of the day.
Change my way
and function along
my colors
of a young green
and watery blue

Counting seconds,
counting mosquitoes
I ride a free wave out of time

Riding along the tide
I roll in a skate.
Waves open

On a Skate

Opportunities come and leave on a skate
Falling down doesn't mean it's all because of fate
Failure are supposed to teach you about errors not hate
Getting up is all about never giving at any rate
Things can turnover in any date 
Opportunities come and leave on a skate

The Good Old Days

Twirling around the glossy smooth floor
Racing with friends on roller-skates
Tossing my hair as I glide across the room
Feeling so certain that this is my destiny

Weaving through the crowd lithely, swiftly
Smiling at everyone, my heart filled with laughter
Lighting the entire room with the heartfelt joy
Discovered in this place where I owned elation

Bending and looping through the

Foolish Skater

There once was a large ice patch on Main
Avoided by everyone sane
	A foolish skater
	Thought himself greater
His skating now induces horrid pain

Fallen 7 Year-Old Skate Boarder

7 year old skateboarder young boy with long braided Locs;
Overpowered by powerful frocks;
Skateboarding over wooden boxes;
fell hard,  knees scarred;
Was impaled by a rusty nail;
 Went to ER had a passionate nurse 
She asked the boy which ouchy he wanted soothe first;
She was like penicillin she stuck a needle in his buttocks the, filled with

My Mom Lets Me Roller Skate In the House

My mom lets me roller skate in the house, the new boy said.
Liar! I thought, but I kept it to myself.
She lets me paint murals on the walls of my room, he added.
You are a fibbing fool I thought, but I did not call him on it.
My mom lets me swear upside one wall and

Me, Myself and Ice

Only the cold crunching
of the fresh snow bunching,
and the tired leather boots
as I take that first step

Can be heard right here
by no other frozen ear,
for away I rushed off
to find silence instead

And all that is harsh
exists not on this marsh,
where the only prying eyes
belong to birds and deer

The moment I did hesitate
to glide along my

Roller Skate Magic

roller skate magic
brought my parents together
both of them surprised

my mother was not looking
my father was
a voice told him she was the one

roller skate magic
he could not take his eyes off her
she noticed him not

my father did some research
discovered she worked for his cousin
would not leave her alone after that

roller skate magic
a place my father did
