POEM STARTER

Ice Skating

Write a poem which could have this as the title. Consider that it might not literally be about ice-skating.

Man Made Snowflakes

**_I may not ever ice skate again


I wasn’t mature enough at the time._**


I’d fall on the back of my head and laugh

Because

**I loved it**


But Id bruise my ankle

And cut people off on accident because

It was an obsessive feeling


The lines you create

Give way to sweeping crystals

Caressing your faces

As wind


Brushing you gently

Making you **art **


In the moment who cares about a bruised ankle?


But if you don’t care in the moment


Than you don’t really for the moment


So I can never ice skate again


But I know now that maybe if I was more loving

Maybe if I was more generous with myself

Than I wouldn’t have been hurt


If care was the way foward


I would carve that on ice now


**_But maybe I will rollerblade

Maybe I will rollerblade


Snowflakes still fall somewhere


_**
