I wrote this in response to a challenge in the excellent
poetree comm (which you should check out), and as it was about my bicycle ride on Friday I thought I would post it here as well in case any cyclists here were of a poetic bent. (In case you are wondering, the poem is an etheree).
"Up/Down"
up
pedal
pump up hill
keep beat with breath
don't stop, don't think just
feel body flow breathe in
still on the edge of the hill
mockingbird breathes its soulmate's song
warbling in time with legs' up down
crescendo and crest the hill, fly back down
