And they're off!

And they're off!

In the race to nowhere

through life's lanes of travels, 

Cautious tripped over Rush.

Floored, gathering composure

Rush saying thank you

Cautious smiled in reply.

Rush was no more....

Dashing off instead,

Cautious ever watchful, alert

sat this quest out.

The race continued

with Bolt, Dart, Run,

Scramble, Scamper, Hurry

all moving with urgent haste

towards the finishing line.

Cautious, nowhere to be seen

They knocked the wind out of his sails.
