Running

Running, running everywhere Fast or slow, do I care? uphill, downhill, roads and grass I just never want to crash The freedom I feel when I run Feels good to say it’s really fun Checking my time, checking my pace Helps me prepare for my next race Racing you say how can I be Racing at age sixty-three My knees don’t hurt they feel good Keeping active I know I should 5K, 8 mile and now a half What am I doing? Am I daf? I’m going to enjoy all that I can I’ll always be my number 1 fan! By barbara poor…..

loved this Barbara. I'm a runner too! Strangely, it's usually when I'm running that I get ideas for poems! :) best wishes, Alex
