The Sort of Stuff You Should Tally

Flurries are fluttering-
temperatures are teetering-
...on freezing
there outside.

Sitting here inside-
my breathe, can only hide
praying to stay put!
in warmth.
-----------------------------------
But an intangible ping
Yearns for that sting
a feeling of striving
toward more-

So I lace up them shoes
and defeat Winter blues
with a step at a time
for awhile

Soon, don't you know-
my soul it did glow!
A smile brightened
that valley

And while we get more
through running outdoors
it ain't the sort of stuff
you should tally!

  3. I know I am a little late, but I love the pics you put up in your last post. Running in the snow is tough, but it sure looks easier with the running partner you have.

  4. Respect. There is NO way I could have done that.
