The Ramp
I wrote this when I was in 8th grade
As I stand at the top of the hill
I stand very still
Will I survive this nightmare
Or will I get eaten by a bear?
My neighbor says it's my turn to go
I back up and get read for my hair to blow
As I jump into the sled,
I think, oh Lord, I could soon be dead!
As I dodge the tree, and then the fence,
I get the feeling of suspense
The ramp, I see it
Now I'm scared just a bit
If I miss, I'll land in the creek,
And I'm already feeling weak!
I made it,  I jumped the creek,
Now if my neighbor misses he'll feel like a geek.
Now, two years later, we are both still alive
How, no one knows, I guess we just thrive.
