It's a Beautiful Day

Spring skiing on a beautiful day
in the mountains with my daughter,
teaching me the most advanced ski moves,
how to step down any slopes of
more than five degrees, modeling the
latest ski fashions. We had the trails
to ourselves, fortuitously, as we
needed the space to sprawl across
in dramatic face forward launches,
and then to turn around three times
before figuring out how to get up.
Yes, a fine day in the mountains
shared with my favorite ski bum.
