Surfin’ Superior
.
Grab your board, Superior’s good!
It’s the right time to ride the wood.
Get a wet-suit, the water’s cold!
It’s a wet sport, just for the bold!
.
Wouldn’t pass this up, if I could.
Grab your board, Superior’s good!
Wind’s blowin’, makin’ gnarly waves,
Get on out there! Past the ice caves!
.
There’s nothin’ like this, anywhere!
Showin’ our stuff, in freezin’ air.
Grab your board, Superior’s good!
Cold waves have crested, as I stood.
.
Gotta do it! ‘Cause it’s a rush!
Paddle out there in chilly slush.
Freezin’ water is understood.
Grab your board, Superior’s good!

| Author Notes You don’t need Hawaii, California or the Atlantic coast to Surf. We surf right here in Minnesota any time of the year. Hardy Minnesotans were out surfing this weekend in March as I shot this picture. Bold and Cold! That’s livin’. Poem is 8 count syllables and aabb rhyme scheme. Took this picture 3/2/2013 with my Sony camera. |
