I've Never
...I’ve never climbed a mountain
Or gone up in a balloon
And if I never scuba dive,
Well, that will be too soon.
I’ve never rafted rapids,
Para-sailed or water-skied
And as for jumping off a cli...

Everyday The Same
...With this sweaty ooze
Worker's, in a heat
Thoughts, drop by drop now repeat

Liquid Dreams
...Hung o'er for falls' sounding rush
Fern frond on frond's, soft, slow;
Skied for rain, or shoulder-high
Downpoured, harem girl by.

Ski Lessons
...Slipping, sliding,
Kicking, gliding -
Iffy my technique.
It's a snowy week.
Never skied before -

No Rain Loop
...storm clouds surround on every side,
but straight overhead: sunny, blue-skied.
thunder echoing up on the hill;
here in the trees, all is quite still.

Lets Go Skiing

With skied hopes dawning
Then let down of, all too soon;

Pride Goeth Before a Fall
...There was a young man from Lancaster
Who tried to do everything faster
He skied off a cliff
Landed on his midriff
And now he’s cemented in plaster...
