Legs pounding on the road
Music thumping in the ears
Gait in harmony with the beat

The wintry chill just right
The lazy sun extinguishing the night
The fog evaporating to a golden glow
The radiance seeps into me
Warming me gently
Filling me with love

Uneven terrain makes me dance
Chaotic traffic makes me prance
Nothing bothers me, am in a state of trance

For as long as I run
Under the warm winter sun
It is sheer bliss
Caressed by nature’s kiss

Blessed am I
To be still inside
And poetry gushes out.
