Jeremy Jones Wrote a Poem About Surfing On Lake Tahoe

My arms are heavy, I have somewhere to be but I cant seem to go in.

There is something about surfing the lake that is special. Like you found a lost treasure or got away with a bank heist.

To have this placid medium come to life with power and rage.

Finding form and making sense of nature in its most wild and raw form.

To find the diamond in the rough.

To play in the chaos when most hide from it.

Whatever it is it makes me smile and laugh, and hoot like a kid.

Whatever it is it keeps me going back for more.
