Persevere
Muscles pumping
Gears turning
Lungs gasping
Mind racing
Petal round the park
Father knows
Trials faced
Handicaps
Overcome
Choices good and bad
Show you
How to
Live here
Live now
Move beyond the pain
Got to go
Got to move
Got to push
Got to focus
Focus past the pain
14 yards
14 miles
Leg cramps
Don’t care
Only that it ends
Stop
Off path
Curbside
Kneel down
Look close
Tiny little plants
They Have
Pushed through
Concrete
Preserved
Never giving up.
