The Runner

 

It’s been quite a run

Planes, trains and automobiles

On frozen streets

Under sunny skies

 

I’ve been on one of those jags

Where it keeps coming at you

All in a good way

But it can also get in the way

 

On the road for days on end

Even when you’re home

You’re away

Just stopping long enough to sleep

 

And the running isn’t just work

It cuts into life

Making relationships harder

And plans a bit less reliable

 

But it’s good

And it’s worth it

And it all makes good fun

 

An active life

With an active mind

The formula for happy

All aboard!
