Happy Wednesday!
I love it when I’m out for an early morning run and I see another runner. I get so excited! YES! Another runner like me enjoys the silence of the morning before the day begins. I feel this sense of connection and this urge to give them a high five across the road or a good morning shout “you rock!”.
Instead, I wave and offer a good morning through the darkness.
Did they see me? Did they hear me?
Oh well, it makes me smile. And I’m happy to see another mother runner out on the road. Keep going!
What is your favorite couplet in the poem of the day?
Poem of the Day:
Mother Runner
Rise early to get out the door mother runner Alone under the dark sky no other runner Silence in the morning clear the mind, breath runner Time to feel free energized not smother runner Snow whispers to the ground wake up feet crunch runner Eyes wide snowplow up ahead oh brother! runner Dash across the road avoid the plow safe runner Adventure awaits here comes another runner A wave, good morning smile stride along runner Julie, it will be a great day mother runner
I like the third couplet about the snowplow. That’s always a little scary what to do when you hear that coming.
