Original Poetry from Adan Lerma
A Gift for RememberingTM
Artist's Comment: though many of my writings are more empathy/research based than experiential, this one is one i've lived and felt just like it's written
though i didn't go on to become like a devotee of the sport, i touched it enough to see and feel beyond the sweat and ability to eat more than i do now :-) i saw and felt the world around me, within

the thought itself" - adan
Cross Country
Pace.
Learning to pace is key.
Letting the thud thump
of one’s feet slip
skip into a heart beat.
Allowing the mind to find the eye’s
range into any distance.
Rough broken edges of rocks
soften. The round turns of
foliage and trees sharpen.
Green and brown and blue become bound.
One’s view and nature
grow balanced between the
thud thump heart-feet-beat
of one’s breath beginning to
settle easily through and out
the gliding body.
The floating consciousness
breathes lightly through the views.
And the countryside within and without
becomes covered, crossed and claimed
by one heart. One vision.

Special notes:
The text presented in the photo example below is how we print, a more cursive pretty font that won't reprint well here.
Also, we adjust the font size of the title, copyright, personalization, to fit both the writing itself, and the constraints of the mat opening (window) of the 8x10's we use.
