Bad Poem

I love to ski

It’s the happiest I’ll ever be

In Illinois, I’m as lost as a snowflake by the sea

I like skiing among the trees

Hopefully I don’t freeze

Like an old man with heart disease

Who ate too much cheese

Skiing is like a kid trying trapeze

Snowboarders are as bad as goat cheese

They’re as annoying as bees

Or maybe a barking Maltese

But they think they’re as cool as Hercules

Skiers have the freedom of the seas

We can ski from the trees

To the greens

All with ease
