I am in awe of anyone who can glide with ease on ice, and you've captured this scene beautifully through your words in this 5-7-5 poem, Nicki. Our best memories, talking as an older lady, are the simple things. A lovely addition to this Book of Renga.
cheers

Indeed, these signs of the life, joy and energy is evidence of these dear souls having the time of their young lives. Yes, as long as we can skate, it is real fun, beautifully written Nicki, blessings Roy

Nicki,

This is a wonderful Christmas memory. When I lived in Minnesota we would alway go ice skating on the lake behind my sister-in-laws house. It was our tradition we started for the kids. Now we live in Texas and ice skating is nothing more than a memory.

Great job my friend.

Cecilia

That's a lovely thought! It's not expensive toys or fancy foods but it's the time spent having fun together that are treasured most and last the longest. Thanks for entering this into the book!

    And those are the moments you treasure when you grow up! Especially these days kids have so much material things compared to when we were little. Spending quality time doing fun things are most definitely treasured more! Thanks for your lovely review!

You paint a lovely scene with your words. Ice skating used to be a favorite thing of mine as a kid. Usually on a frozen lake. Thanks for sharing..
