Short Poems
1. “Rolling Solo”
Skateboard beneath my feet,
Wind rushing past my face,
Rolling solo down the street,
In my own skater’s pace.
2. “Switch Stance”
Riding regular was getting dull,
So I switched up my stance,
Felt like everything was new,
My board was my chance.
3. “Concrete Jungle”
My skateboard and I conquer the city,
Navigating the urban terrain,
Riding through the concrete jungle,
Feeling free again.
4. “Grinding”
Hitting the rail without a fear,
My board grinds with ease,
I feel alive when I’m grinding,
Nothing else brings me such peace.
Medium Poems
1. “Ollie”
The board beneath my feet
I feel the thrill of the street
The wind in my hair
I know I’m alive, I swear
I push off and gain speed
The pavement becomes my steed
I crouch down low and then
I jump and flip my board again
My heart beats fast and strong
As I fly through the air so long
I land upright, full of pride
My adrenaline is amplified
I skate off, a little taller
Moments like this, I can’t holler
The rush of skating sets me free
This is where I’m meant to be
2. “Concrete Playground”
The city is my playground
The concrete beneath my feet, no mound
The buildings stretch high in the sky
I never feel like I’m going to die
I carve my way down the street
The pavement a blank canvas for me to beat
I zig and zag around each turn
Skating is something for which I always yearn
The sound of the wheels on the ground
My feet shifting weight, the only sound
I feel the connection to the concrete
Skating is a feeling, nothing can defeat
My eyes locked on the horizon
I look straight ahead, I am not lyin’
I love to skate, it’s my passion
Nothing can ever truly ration
3. “The Skate Park”
I roll into the park with ease
The place where I belong is so very appease
I am a part of the community here
I have no fear
Everyone shares in the passion
It’s not just a temporary fashion
We all skate for the love of the sport
The energy here we exhort
The clapping of the wheels echo
As we fly by each other like a crow
The ramps become mountains to climb
We all work together to be sublime
We share the experience
With everyone here, there is no difference
While we all have different styles
Our love of skating never wiles
The sun sets over the park
We all say goodbye ’til dark
I skate away with a smile
This community is why I skate for miles.
Long Poems
A Thousand Miles on Wheels
Rolling, gliding, free as air
The wheels beneath my feet declare
A sense of freedom, pure and fair
As I skate along without a care
The sun sets low, the night is dark
But there’s no stopping, there’s no park
The wind in my face, I feel alive
As I hit the pavement with a drive
Around the corners, down the lane
My skates embrace the concrete plain
The rush, the thrill, the pace insane
As I push myself through the pain
A thousand miles on wheels I’ve gone
Through streets and parks until the dawn
The blisters, the sweat, the ache, and swell
The price I pay for this sweet hell
But even so, I keep on going
Pushing, gliding, never slowing
For in this moment, I am free
To be myself, to just be me.
And so I’ll skate a thousand miles more
Until my feet and body are sore
For every push, every glide
Is proof that I am truly alive.
