Ode to Running


 

The wind rushes into my face,
I try to keep an even pace.

I try to go hard like the flash,
Into a tree, I'll try not to clash.

Have to make sure I tie my shoes,
So I can go out to meet my muse.

I need to choose to jump the crack,
Or go onto the deep red track.

My feet feel free, like clouds in the sky,
I watch as the scenery passes by.

I need to be out in the bright sun,
I can't wait to go out for a run!
