It was so absorbing,

I felt it amazing,

every turn...

every hike...

the abyss and

the hill alike...

glorified numerous times..

thrashed as worthless dimes..

I kept walking,

to attend my final ritual,

with some crying ...

some chatting as usual,

as I passed the race..

with my whatever pace,

the jury hugged and started inquiring,

was it relaxing or tiring,

I smiled......

as I know....

Another race ready to run...

Another bout being planned to be done.
