Went to the skate park,
Lil’ E sliding on his butt
Giggling, sliding.
Concrete transition,
Metal coping eight feet up
Lil’ E slides on down.
Toddler shows no fear,
Everyday is such a lark,
Laughter fills the air.
Watching bladers trick,
Says, “Cool dude!” as guy flies by,
As sun sets slowly.
“That’s an old school board,”
guy remarks as he skates by,
“Yep, sure is,” says I.
Homegirl does tailkicks,
Halfway up the transition,
I try, almost fall.
Want to ride the edge,
Grinding, sliding on the lip
I can touch the sky.
