If you want to impress me
Caress me with a triple diamond.
Guide me to the butte
Take me down the chute,
Meet me at the colouir
With the hanging rock above
And the Northern Star below.
Be my Picabo Street or Tom Moe
And when I take a long spill
Be there for my landing
Pick up the hat, gloves and poles.
Just don't let me lay there broken
To pieces all over the slope
With gapers staring from the top.
And when I am done
Unbuckle my boots, Let
Me carry the skis -- Just
Take me back to the roots.

Enjoyed the WRFL interview, especially where it touched on bilingualism and biculturalism, some of which I could relate to.
