Rambling and Scrambling
I really hate to
eat and run,
But that is how it’s
often done.
I gobble snacks
Then race the tracks,
So that I will not weigh a ton.
But that is how it’s
often done.I gobble snacks
Then race the tracks,
So that I will not weigh a ton.
I lace my shoes and
set my clock
To plod my way
around the block.
But chuckle not,
And no cheap shot,
Unless you plan to
walk the talk.
