On Your Mark
October 16, 2012
The runners are….
In their blocks
On your mark….
Get set…..
Go….
And the runners are off
Obama is off to a quick start
With Romney running
Stride for stride…
About 1 step back
As they approach the first turn
Obama is still in the lead
Romney…
Running strong
Has kicked it up a notch
Coming off the turn
And is now a half step behind
Heading into the backstretch
Romney is…
Now pulling even
This is a big race for both
Of these men…
Romney…..
The elder statesman
Is trying to go out of top
Obama….
The current champion
Is trying to show that….
Winning the championship
Was not a fluke
And
He still has the heart
Of a champion
Halfway down the backstretch
Romney pulls ahead…
By a ½ step
Obama is holding on
He picks up the pace
And catches Romney
Obama
Once again
Takes the lead
Now it’s Romney
What an exciting race
These two continue to trade leads
Down the backstretch
Obama …. Romney
Romney ….Obama
They are running
Stride for stride….
Coming into
The last turn
This is going to be a tight race
It remains to be seen
How the handoff will be….
Down the stretch
As they approach
Ryan and Biden
Both are awaiting the baton
Ryan and Biden are…
Both are good runners
But this handoff is critical
A clean pass of the baton
Builds momentum
Romney and Obama
Are still running
Stride for Stride
As they approach the handoff
Ryan and Biden
Take off
The runners approach
Ryan and Biden…
Now in stride…
Reaching back….
Await the baton
The pressure is on both
Romney and Obama
To make a clean handoff
Keeping
Ryan and Biden
From breaking stride
Straight to the point and well written! Why can’t everyone else be like this?
