Take Heart

The wind blows crisp

And strong.

Rustling my leaves.

Time to get going

forward.

My heart stretches

Ahead of me.

Confident it knows 

The way.

My body is stiff and

Reluctant.

Just move one foot

At a time.

I can do that.

I will do that.

Let’s get this party

started.

Maybe, just maybe

It’ll be brilliant.
