About the Poem

I wrote this one night after I had been out skating, and tried some tricks and fallen a few times. This poem seems on the surface to be about trying a trick and failing: but it has a deeper meaning. It is more of a metaphor for love and rejection.

Cold Spring Skate

Cold spring air
heal my wounds
and every tear

Heal my scrapes of nine
heal my bruises
and heal my mind

Heal me and make me whole
heal my heart
and heal my soul

Heal me from the grind I tried
heal my body
and heal my pride
