The Big Thrill

I recall that special feeling

Of recoiled anticipation,

Sitting poised and ready

High atop the snow-capped hill.

The rush of spilled adrenaline,

The gush of gusting wind which

Hurried past as I went flying

To the bottom.  What a thrill

It gave a young and foolish heart

To know a danger quickly born

Of pure delight, turned by flight to

Pure uncensored ecstasy.

Knowing at that moment that

No matter what the future held,

Nothing could be better.  It's as

Good as life was meant to be.

 

Oh!  The joy of being wrong.  For

Of all the memories I recall,

To know the sweetness of your touch

Is the greatest thrill of all.
