Edited excerpts
at the ready
for the community-
centric stylish
references

as far as investing
in the impressive
kid-friendly
quintessentially
family remembrances

soft and pleasant
high overhead
whooping and swooping
down steep powdery
mountains

with smoke-signal clouds
from cafeteria chow
well down the valley
after heading out of bounds

snaking for hours
across wakes of gravel
scaling famed passes
followin' arrows
while comin'
'round the mountain

whoa back
wipers slapping
'gainst floating powder
tip/waist/tail
added power and dampness
heated mitt styles also available

plus easier slope access
with tubing lanes
berms and banks
for moonlight
snowshoeing
during guided tours

going straight
for the salt-water taffy
sold by the pound
for the frugal traveler

staying
out of town
becoming
snowbound,
"Let it snow
let it snow
let it snow
let it snow
let it snow"...
