Pedal Pushing
As muscles flex and stretch to push the pedals and my face into the wind The ache, the bite awakens endorphins and the rush helps push further and further Such sweet pain
Friends of the Past
Friends Far off in time or space soften my heart still With friendship's grace without uttering a word nor treading my step I can conjure their faces and love them fully with no contact ever I will carry them always
Gratitudes Grace
A sentinel of heart's rejoicing gratitude rang true in all of my consciousness Every ember of life's passion flamed bright in the breezes caused by fresh thoughts and epiphanies Riding on the heels of thankfulness Blessings abound
Spring in Summer

One leg up on the rest of the crew Caterpillar loved that he was he and not some silly bug with only six legs
