~Water Skiing,Tribute to Maggie~

Ah, indeed a summer teenage delight!
My Cousin Maggie assured me, would 
make a water skier of me.
Ah, my young heart lost all frightening 
premontions and took a soaring flight.

I sat on the pier, she threw me the
dauntful handle and rope.
Fear seized me,...

Snow
Drifting

Gliding skis

Wally Weasel Goes Skiing

Wally still loves painting, but he’s now discovered sports.
He made his reservations at a faraway resort.
He’s never skied but has a book with lessons showing how.
After reading it two times plus one, he thinks he’s ready now.

With wooly scarf around his neck...

Downhill Skiing and Sledding

He had always found Hillary hard to face
Which is why Bernie runs all over the place
And he really never got to know her
Started sinking to depths that are lower.

Worse things ever he often had applied
Saying how Hillary was not qualified
She started crying...

Granny jumps on the jet ski and glides 
over the bumpy waves she does ride 
she heads toward flat ground 
as her flab flops around 
the poor old granny has lost her pride.

Knocking down trees with your face
Describes skiing so I play Checkers in place
Coz the worst that can happen
Your opponent gets mad and
Pulls out a gun and you are erased...

Let’s go skiing ! Said my wife 
It gives you such a thrill
So off we flew to Canada 
To face the bitter chill

We took a bus from Calgary
To Banff’s National park
Found our hotel, went to bed
To get up with the lark 

I brought a bright...

Skiing Is… 

Skiing is…
Alpine thrill ride on four inch boards
Boggy in the bumps – a schuss to the lodge
Carving a turn leaving icy rooster tails in the air
Drag lift to ride on thick moving ropes

Skiing is…
Extreme black diamond runs on endless terrain 
Flat hills of...

SKIING


Our skis sing softly all along
The snowy trail, and in among
The tall straight pines where we belong:
The silence echoes to our song.

Almost silent, the hill is fast;
Blows a kiss as we  whisper  past.
Ahead  - the sloping whiteness  vast.
O Never end! ...

The Dachshund’s a marvel on skis
Little legs that stop short of its knees 
It can schuss like a pro
Making furrows in snow
(Though its privates are given to freeze)...
