February nears each day
Rest waits patiently
Each run considered
Seconds, minutes, hours before
Time passes in miles
Dew covered clothing
Runners move through clouded breaths
Dawn on silver frost
Dodging grey traffic
Suit swapped for soft shoe shuffle
Lunchtime escapades
Winter nights descend
Cold streetlights spread monochrome
Emptying the streets
The runner endures
Mustering resolve he leaves
The warm family
A body of aches
Moves on complaining muscles
Mind elsewhere above
Alone and peaceful
Puffing chest and pounding heart
A spirit rising
Download and upload
The world just a click away
Sharing each triumph
Every run a win
Another day overcome
A winter beaten

If you'd like to leave a haiku in response to today's post, three lines, of five, then seven, then five syllables. I'd be very grateful.

ReplyDeleteRunning off the Christmas pies
Finding form of old
Everyday a new route
Looking for that extra mile
Home to work and back
Glorious weather
January blues no chance here
Perfect running start
Putting in the time
All the miles will pay off soon
High risk of divorce
Every mile worth it
Janathon with kindred minds

Holy hellfire! There lurks a hidden talent. Our combined poetry prowess has received comment on facebook, no less. Well, if shipping law and event management fall through, we've always got a fallback.
