Snowboarding

by Kelly, Taurus - Not entered

The sunlight glistened,
Onto the snow,
as my board went swiftly,
with my body down low.

It was 2pm, I was alone.
Boarding in the cold.
By myself.
I was told.

I passed a tree, and another one.
a forest was ahead.
With large evergreens,
but most of them were dead.

I curved the board slightly,
so I was on the trail.
I closed my eyes briefly,
and thought of things in detail.

I go boarding to get away,
from every life pain.
I board alone to hear myself,
and to seek into my domain.

A ramp is ahead, but I go around.
i don't feel like jumping today.
Jumping consists of thought.
But now, my mind is drifting away.

When I board, my mind jumps away,
to a place I can't explain.
When I board, nothing else seems to matter,
except what my mind could contain.

Reason for writing:

    I wrote this poem the night I got back from Snowboarding. I don't really know why I wrote it. The poem might tell you something though.
I wanted others to read my poetry. Thats why I submitted it.
