Ice-Skating

I don't know whether this really, really counts as poetry...but oh well!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You step on the ice gingerly
Onto unsolid ground
Ooh slippery
Foggy
Exhilarating

You grab the railing
Afraid to fall
Yet deep deep inside
Wanting to fall
To gain the feeling

You sigh wistfully
Why can’t I glide upon the ice
Naturally
With ease
Like them

Should I let go
Move my feet
Try to glide upon ice
Naturally
Like them
