Slope Sorrow

January 23, 2024
By Anonymous

Sliding through slopes so steep, 
I created a memory I’ll forever keep,  
Remember smelling the scent of the fresh air, 
I slid and slode without a care. 
 
Cut up flakes with my board, 
My fear of a fall I ignored. 
A risky dance, 
For that feeling I take a chance. 
 
The hills stood silent and witnessed my plight, 
A deep hushed break, pain’s icy bite, 
A tragic fall put an end to my delight, 
A now crippled hand stood to my right.
