Skiing is Skiing, No Matter How Much Snow

There's not a lot of snow, they say.

In fact, it hasn't snowed at all, they say.

There isn't that much open, they say.

The Skiing is Boring, they say.

WHAT?!

I'm Sorry, What did you say?!

The skiing is boring?

You have to be wrong!

There isn't snow everywhere ...

well let me explain with a song:

Skiing is Skiing,

no matter how much snow

We turn left and we turn right,

it doesn't matter how far we go.

Every DAY it is different

Every TRAIL its own way

Every TURN's a new challenge

Every DAY you get to play

I am having a sweet time,

my ski buddies and I,

we are laughing and skiing

and sometimes I even cry.

We make our own fun,

as we play in the snow,

we don't need steeps or powder

we can go fast or even slow.

All we need is snowmakers and lifties,

just to make everything go.

And groomers, ski patrol, & park crew

to help us play in the snow.

Skiing is Skiing,

no matter how much snow

We turn left and we turn right,

it doesn't matter how far we go.

We ride the poma, the gondi 

and the really slow chair

And on the way down,

we feel the wind in our hair.

There is no reason for stopping,

unless you can't feel your legs.

We not moping in the house,

with the doldrums and dregs.

We are the ones out skiing

and having a blast.

As long as there is some manmade

and we can go really fast

My friends and I will be on the mountain,

having a hell of a time,

We'll be laughing and screaming,

and feeling wicked fine.

Because Skiing is Skiing,

no matter how much snow.

We turn left and we turn right,

It doesn't matter how far we go.

So when you're sitting at home

complaining of the weather,

just remember you could be skiing

Floating down the mountain light as a feather.

May You Find the Spirit of the Mountains Within You,

Merisa
