The Race

Tension mounting
“On your marks”
“Get set, go!”
Off into the dark

Racing, running
Faster than fast
Pushing, aggressive
Don’t want to be last

Speed, is building
Nothing is still
Everything moving
A spinning wheel

The final approaches
Who will it be?
All passing quickly
Who will it be?

Got to get there
Want to be first
All of us charging
One big burst



We pass the line
Each competitive horse
Must know – who won?
The winner – of course!

I have a really good imagination, which can sometimes be a hindrance, but it is what helps me with inspiration to write my poetry, which I do as a form of relaxation and to give pleasure to others that read it.
I have been writing poetry for many years and regularly have it published in print. My poetry is published by Forward Press and in many other publications. So I'm now putting my poetry online. I publish my poetry on my Blog jo-hale-poetry at http://jo-hale-poetry.blogspot.com/ and on 8hop.com My poetry on 8hop.com. I also have information about my poetry at www.squidoo.com/jo-hale-poetry. I'm married to my husband Peter. I was born in May 1970 and am a Taurean star sign.
