Typical Rub Rash (Healed)
Not to Be Confused with Rug Rash

Road Rash
Did you know you can get burned,
while sliding on ice? Probably not,
but the thought isn't very nice.
On the other hand,
sliding on a smooth,
basketball floor,
can give you a burn,
painful like never before.
And for those few of you,
who have wrestled on a mat,
know that a mat burn,
can be where it’s at.
Waterskiing without any skis,
with your butt or your feet,
sliding on water with ease,
Would probably burn your feet,
if the water wasn't so cold,
to cool condition any defeat.
But worst of all, if you would fall,
skateboarding, bicycling or,
at high speed on your motorcycle,
To hot blacktop or concrete below,
while riders wear leathers or pads,
to ease the blow or the slide.
Prevent broken bones, nasty scabs.
Moral:
Do not rub your partner,
the wrong way in word, deed or song.
Impression that you make,
May burn in memory very long.

Learning to ride a bike gave me the most…my poor knees,
Sore and bleeding after skidding …the burn was was SO
painful…
Your last verse is very wise!
A quirky and enjoyable poem…

Wise words, Ron. I remember getting "burned" by hard snow when I was a child sledding down a hill. Love and peace to you,
Regis. 🌳🌲😎
I enjoyed your poem!
