I am running along a narrow path
high in the mountains.
Below me...
Lush, green vegetation
as far as I can see,
I run on,
pursuing the winding path before me.
I am a relay runner
and I have a message to deliver.

I'd cherish the chance for a good run along your verdant path, carrying some message to a waiting poetry god above.
Thanks for the thought provoking message you left on Pips pathway today.
Enjoyed this much, Ida!

Yo dear Ida,

Are you one of Atahualpa's people?  Look out for that sneaky Pizzaro guy.

This is very good work.

Love Bobby

Thank you all for reading. I appreciate the comments.
Bobby, How very perceptive you are. That's exactly what I once was.
