Winter Sport
Zooming down the hill, I'm super fast!
Over ice and snow, I'm having a blast!
No apprehensions about what might be near,
I steer past them all with no fear.
Hooray! I'm sliding down, feeling grand,
While you ascend, don't be sad, understand!
You'll soon conquer that far hill's crown,
Then, with all your might, come racing down.
You’ll swiftly pass by; I'll swiftly rise,
We'll keep sledding; what a delightful surprise!
Life's a thrill, such a joyful toy,
For every cheerful girl and boy!
