This is the first poem I ever wrote.  It came to me in a dream, when I was in high school.  It may reflect a first attempt, but I'll let you guys be the judges
************************************

Riding along the curves
   in the street,
In the rain
He doesn't care -
He's the Skateboard Sailor, lighter than air...

He travels along
  the radical swurves
That engulf him
  in their light.
They always seem to follow him,
  even after he's gone.

When he's gone -
From the curves in the night -
The Skateboard Sailor
   will remember
How he once mastered the streets.
