Like Deer They Run

Like deer they run, so gracefully
With winged feet, youth's pedigree
They flow along, near-effortless
Like deer they run, so gracefully
On straightaways, they're swifter yet
Lithe frames incline, take off like jets
Like deer they run, so gracefully
Winged feet, youth's pedigree

And every year that passes, we wish we had another one of those fast feet. Enjoyed.

The only feet I have left are metrical, as in tetrameter, pentameter, etc... Blessings, gw

Advantage is an understatement, perhaps. LOL. Thanks for visiting my page too, Sara. Appreciated. Best wishes, Gershon
