Endless Running

by Blair H.

To move my legs
Back and fourth,
Whirling and twirling,
Until the darkest night comes,
Then rest at last,
Inside a warm cave.
When light comes gently,
As light as me,
That is my strongest dream.
To move my legs
Back and fourth,
Twirl, spin, and win!
Until the race is over,
Rest when it is dim,
Start when it is light.
Light like me!
