Shameless

When, many years

Ago, I ran

(ok, moved forward slightly faster

than most walk)

Cross country

Motivated to do so

By a cute boy

Who also ran (really, like-

Fast!) I sang

As there was ample time

To do

"Home" by

Simon and Garfunkel

Several

Several

Times

From start

To finish of the race

Never catching

That cute boy

But,

Carrying the tune

In my heart
