Walking on water

I start with a ski, There is stability and comfort

The next step is a test of bravery

This is when you go from one to none

You get the signal from the driver that the boat is at barefoot speed

When you plant your foot in the water

There must be more trust in your body than ever before

The stakes are high, knowing concussions and back injuries are an option

But once you are there it doesn't matter

You are walking on water

Doing the unimaginable

There is nothing like that

Back to focus, don’t get lost in the beauty

Then woosh your off the rope in the water

Then it's done

You broke your concentration and now you hurt

But you were walking on water

You did it
