Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
Left, right, left, right.
Leg forwards and pull back.
Breathe.
Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
Under trees, across the grass,
along a track, follow the path.
Breathe.
Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
Frees the mind to engage with God.
God in this space sharing my thoughts.
Breathe.
Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
Green, the glory of God,
grandeur of trees, panoply of sky.
Breathe.
Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
A rosary of prayers for those I love,
for those on my heart.
Breathe.
Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
Baring my soul, God may your will be done –
this world: its plight, our mistakes.
Breathe.
Running, step by step
Mile after mile.
Strained, worn down,
stay firm, keep faith.
Breathe.
Stop. Rest.
Amen.
