Venturing Out
My husband ventured out today,
His virus on the wane.
He only took the briefest walk
But didn’t much complain.
For he was thrilled (and so was I)
To see him well enough
To leave his snug cocoon and have
The strength to strut his stuff.
He won’t be running marathons
And this I underscore
Because, in truth, he wasn’t running
Marathons before.
