By chance I stumbled into a race

By chance I stumbled into a race

fiction
edward w pritchard


By chance I stumbled into a race,
crawling first, then upright charging about,
the course from here to there had many twist and turns,
up down under and through unfamiliar terrain,
gamely did I run,
with will and determination did I compete,
first was I then,
well out in front,
then by luck a wrong turn.
I didn't give up but sprinted the harder,
with sinking heart,
the game over,
I ran till the end.
