Written

Life is a journey
Written by footprints
Dipped in black ink
Paragraphs and page breaks
Commas and apostrophes
Thoughts raining like periods
Against the newness of day
Let us pray
For His sovereign pen
Tragedy is a sentence before victory
Love is only a chapter away
Let it be written
On pages that blink into day
The greatest stories of life

Running (O.S.I)

Stilted legs running in the dawn
Forever gliding and moving
Dust rising from her feet
Gathering speed like a freight train
Along the dotted prairies and hills
Footprints deep like craters
Etched along the shores of time
When waves are forever running
Sea green skipping with grace
Birds in flight, run in air
How high we leap to catch them
The babe shall surely run
Her shadow chasing the sun
Four legged friend wagging her tongue
Thousands of miles in a singular step
Life is best met running
