1221. quicksilver memories

 

remembering the days
my light body on winged feet
running forever 🦊❤️

I was walking in Morris Arboretum yesterday.  There is a beautiful monument and sculpture of Mercury.  I stood for quite awhile looking at it, especially the winged feet on Mercury’s thin body.  I thought fondly of my days of running sub-three hour marathons and occasional “runner’s high” experiences.  Of all of the “Dans” I have been over my lifetime, being a runner is most deeply embedded in my being. Everything changes… 🦊❤️
