Needs a good mental state
\nAnd strong arms to the fore
\nReally you have to be
\nIn your own war
\nEmotional chemistry working
\nAway
\nA keen disposition
\nThat\u2019s really at play
\nTempered and framed
\nWith enormous desire
\nTo feel like a tortoise
\nTo try to aspire<\/p>\n
To let all the others go off at a pace
\nYou will be going
\nWhen they disgrace
\nThemselves tired of foot
\nTheir arms numb as hell
\nDevoured by your age
\nAnd closer to Hell<\/p>\n
Two sticks on the arms
\nResponsively you
\nWill keep your head up
\nDoing what you do
\nA race with the others
\nNot in your race
\nThey can\u2019t even see you
\nThey are not at your pace<\/p>\n
Your hips are afire
\nThere is pain everywhere
\nEmphatically you
\nWill be tasting despair
\nBut you will be walking
\nIn your heart will be
\nThe love of your life
\nOf course the Dear C <\/p>\n
Overwhelmed by her beauty
\nSold on her look
\nIf only she saw me
\nA passionate book
\nOf love and of caring
\nOf chocolate at Dawn
\nOf agave and kisses
\nAnd yes some puffed corn<\/p>\n
I love her as much
\nI must walk along
\nMy sticks are my legs
\nNothing will go wrong
\nI have pain yes I do
\nBut a look at her smile
\nMakes me want to walk faster
\nMile after mile.<\/p>\n
My wrists are going through it
\nIt\u2019s marvellous to see
\nHer greatness her muscles
\nIt works wonderfully
\nWalking on sticks
\nAnd a battering storm
\nEverything sore
\nBut fancifully warm <\/p>\n
How what\u2019s
\nshe feeling
\nI try to be fast
\nA tortoise may kick its future is cast
\nThe need is to battle
\nFortuitously
\nGradually speeding up
\nAnd not suffer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
