Legs are strong
Lungs are weak
Out of balance

Pride is strong
Sense prevails
Must have balance

Forge ahead
Hiking Friends!
I seek balance

Rest on rock
Drink the sun
Soon I'll balance

Quiet air
Laurel's scent
Ease toward balance

Drying sweat
Slowing heart
Almost balanced

Now alone
I've six hours
To be in balance

When rejoined
By hiking friends
I'll feel great!

Will They?
