The Unreadable Poem

I never knew that I know what I now know
I thought then though that time would bestow
A shallow shadow shielding shape and form
of an unwarm storm that seeks to reform

Dropping droplets dripping, drizzling sound
Freezing frigidly and forcefully frosting the ground
Washing winds whitening with wickedly warped wrath
Picking pieces of pavement apart in its path

Snow soothingly softened estates with slates of offal
Littered with debris a small snow wall began to crawl tall
It piled mile high while seemingly becoming hostile
Skies cleared as the sun reared and the feared became docile

Learned mages the sagiest of high sages
Made use of what unlearned through the ages
Strapping sticks to shoes and slipperyly sliding away
Snowboarding became rewarding to those hoarding the skill today

So it began before sun breath burned the blue bath
Men made mobile by miscalculated math
Something so sweetly causing me pain
Figured for freedom of physical gain

Enchanted elements eternally echoing ennui
Frantically searching for an entertainment buoy
Are guided flowingly glowing so growingly snowing
On Elysian Fields making all maneuvers uneasy going

Unless unusual instrumentation is implemented right
Shown the populous only by a majestically magnificent Knight
Divinely diving, spinning and twirling intricately on edge
Masterfully dancing effortlessly on a wintery white ledge

Skillfully handling board as if it his own extension
Instructing all about this ivory icon of ideal invention
Graciously giving a glowing gem of a gift
So humanity can conquer unsumitable snow drift

Now new notions nicely planted in heads
Cause cool dreams while laying lifeless in beds
A perfect circle uncertainty circles creating past, present, and future
That is life laced in an insecure suture
