Today I planned to squeeze in a run before an evening work meeting. Neither one of those happened. Ice, rain and snow showers changed all my plans. Schools closed early. So I picked up my son and headed to the local indoor track. I was disappointed not to run. On the other hand, I had a full night with family instead. I wrote a few lines and thought about warmer days ahead.
Fear robs the comfort
She struggles
To seize;
Whispers climb ladders
She blindly believes;
Scared, she dives
Beyond leaves that change;
Persistence bleeds sunlight
Hazel eyes crave
