Premium MemberSkater On Moonlight

skater on moonlight
wearing diamonds, pearls in hair
fun in frosty air

moonbeams for sunbeams
darkly calm on frozen lake
glide softly as dreams

skater of starlight
feeling joy that comes from peace
hues stained black and white

Premium MemberThe 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!

The Skater

The skater falls
The girl bawls
The agony of mistake
So much to forsake

Dreams realized
Fans and commentators idealize
A flawless routine
An injury not foreseen

The blade glides
The coach guides
The thrill of winning
Their head spinning

The loser's misfortune
Points earned, only a portion
Their head bowed in emotional upset
Replaying the error, lots of regret

The winner soars
The loser closed doors

Icy frozen pond
Wind plays music on bare branch
White ice dance enchants.

Premium MemberOlympic Skater

A fifty year old ice skater, she.
          Dresses in yellow and black like a bumble bee.
          Before she knew it, fell on her duff!
          Realizing she was way

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

Skater Days

Four wheels and a piece of wood 
Whoever thought this would feel so good 
Riding around grinding and jumping 
Who would've thought this was actually something 
From skate parks to scrape marks 
Everyday was an adventure 
Riding down to the dairy queen wind in my hair 
Watching the world fly by watching as people stare

Premium MemberSkater Love

He was thin, wore jeans and a beanie,
She was short, tattooed, black hair.
Skates board his thing,
Rollers skate her bling,
Defiant young kids without a care.

It was after the crowd of skates left,
And streets had emptied away,
Rollers skate her bling, 
Skates board his thing,
A wet June night had stolen the day.

Absorbed by her eyes and she by

London City Aka Skater Arcadia

woke up to a full day but i can tell the sun's only come half bright
on the cemented pavements and shameless statements of the
buildings towering high.
lately pacing shadows of motion
with squeezing tight objectives
lay themselves amaze to stamper so sluggishly unexpected
and rest their bodies inside 
these big red rectangular double decker boxes
that commence to shudder along
with

Figure Skater

He glides 
his skates swishing 
in a flurry of ice, 
caressing with slow movements; mere 
foreplay. 

Silence 
compels the crowd 
disguises excitement
Great expectations fill the air.
All watch. 

He stops 
at center ring. 
Ice gladiator all set 
to make a kill gently, with grace. 
Grandly. 

Then flips. 
Perfect landing! 
He hears the crowd’s applause~ 
incense daring

Skater and Lake

I glide through the mirroring
Lake
Lake; so still, so simply, indolently
worthless

Lake, disagrees, callous feelings
candors
A vociferous wind refurbishes
the was still, still
leaves

The wind is merely the umbrage
at my insult
It repudiates my
sincere apologies

I glide on the pretty
and this lake wanders
wandering so dumbfounded
at a skater's lithe

Skater Man

He stood all alone, helpless and cold.
 The vile words thrown at him, how bold.
They don't know his situation couldn't be controlled.
 If they would only listen as his story is told.

They think he is a drunk, or that he is crazy.
 "He probably has no home because he is lazy."
His life before this is
