346/365 - Exert

 



I breathe deep

and savor

that I can

My exhale

a cloud of white

in the chilled December air

despite the warm

mid-day sun

My throat is dry

a threatening cough

my nose is cold

and threatening to run

but I don't care

because I'm out

I'm on a walk

and though 

I'm getting tired

and though

I've only gone a few blocks

still

my illness

is waning

though not yet gone

best not push it

too far

I think I'll head home
