My First Marathon

It’s that time again

Black Friday

The sun has set.

Some haven’t seen a bed in six days

Because they’re waiting for bargain

Everyone is out there

Wating, keeping track

Soon it will be dawn

And they willl conquer

Malls, castles, stores and halls

Meanwhile

In my bed I lie asleep

Feeling like I counted too many sheep

I can’t believe I did it

I can’t believe I did it

Months later and it’s

Still amazing

My first Marathon

Fills my mind with

Appreciation

For sleep and for food

For friends and for good

Even though some of the day

Had ruined my mood

Everyone else was asleep that day

Like I am now, safe.

One thought on “My First Marathon

  1. This year is my first marathon also. It was not the staying awake that I found marvelous but the actual writing of the poems.
    Write more about Black Friday. This glimpse is great
