Water Ski

To feel that spray upon my face,
To move with such freedom and grace,
To feel the thrill that it can give,
Makes it exciting just to live.
To go left and right, over the wake,
Oh, please let me make it just for my sake!
To feel the rush under my feet,
And wibble and wobble as I ski in the heat.
Then I hit a bump and dive in the drink,
Its cool and refreshing, what do you think?
When I come to the surface, I'm glad I tried,
Extremely happy from the awesome ride.
If there is one word that describes me,
It is my love to water ski.
