We strapped into our brand new ride
My brother and I on our winter slide
Engines?  Check!  Speed meeters?  Go!
One smooth push on fresh layed snow

The rush, the wind, and oh the speed
Nothin' could catch us, follow our lead
Two happy, smiling, cheering boys
Sometimes Christmas brought more than toys

We slid the way in record time
Victory his, and victory mine
A team, the fastest there was
Why were we faster?  Ah just cause!

Gloved high fives when the slowpokes came
Just think of the fortune, and the fame!
Fastest sledders ever on this bill!
A record never topped, upon that hill

Delightful, Bob! This brought back some wonderful childhood memories sledding down those snowy hills!

wish I got enough snow here to do that

There are enough colours in the world,
To paint your own dreams,
You won't get them,
Till you try.
