              Resilient Mind Runs 

I almost canceled 

I don’t feel 
like running in the rain.
Where is the snow? 
It’s almost Christmas.

My excuse maker 
on her high-horse
Oh, come down from there
Let’s not forget

I get to run
I get to breathe in
the country air 
I get to hear 
the streams roar
the soft tap, tap  
on my jacket
I get to feel 
the drizzle on my 
cheeks, face, and
nose. 

The rain pokes at 
my thoughts
separates the dim view 
like a sieve 
I laugh. 
My resilient mind runs 
40 minutes later...

My heart is happy
My soul is at peace
My strength is bright 
In this moment 
Gratitude wins 

——Thank you
