Watching Lukas on his scooter is pretty amazing
and its not just because i'm his mom
people stop me right and left
talkin bout how old is he, shakin their heads, as he whizzes by
fearless
unstoppable
blond ambition
flyin by
experimenting with pop-up wheelies
ballerina arabesques
and fancy footwork
weaving through the Loisaida streets
Luna on her 2 wheeler tryin to keep up
with the mad urban surfer
ridin those street cracks
free as birds

my favorite yet! so visual! you made me relive one of my favorite experiences with lukas... I remember when I taught him to rest his pushing foot to experience the glide. of course now he does all these other tricks... this is a great poem and captures our Lukas one of his greatest moments
