(NaPoWriMo #11)

This is the moment I have waited for
Blue sky brilliance reflecting from mirrored glasses
Backpack strapped tightly over hunched shoulders
Left foot planted solidly on skateboard
Right foot armed and ready for go

The glasses; they protect the eyes from the wind
As we speed down steep declines
The backpack; it adds just the right weight
To help sister gravity
Me; I provide the soul bonded with nature
At one with the road

This is life eternal captured
In minutes of freedom full of the flavor of heaven
Overflowing and spilling into the world in its wake
Breathing life into all who cross our path
We are holy warriors
Messengers of the everlasting
Descending into your town; we ride
