Ode to My Skateboard

It is long
and rough on the top
but smooth on the bottom
when it is new.
It gives me a good time
and gives me much to look forward to.
It moves quickly down the road
As I push faster and faster
and it flips under my feet.
It gets beat up, and when it breaks
it must be put away.
But it holds me up and keeps me going
and it lasts as long as dirt.
