Ski Socks

A Poem by JohnL
"

For Salvatore's contest

"

 

Ski socks
Wrap my feet warmly
As I twist and twirl, slide and CRASH!
Don’t need socks
Lying warm in a hospital,
Head bound, arm slung, feet newly
Plastered.

No, well I guess you wouldn't need socks with plastered legs. LOL.
I hope this was a "muse" write, and not reality!
Thanks for entering this amusing and different "cameo" to Sal's contest.

Ouch. I broke my foot once when I was in elementary school. Fell from a tree after I kicked a ball up there. Day before Halloween too, was a drag but not nearly as bad as the accident depicted here. This brought back that memory for me.

Short, but to the point. The title caught my eye.

HILARIOUS although such a sad ending! Short, sweet and delicious.

Thank you so much for sharing
