You’ve done the work
Put in the time
Cleared the pathway forward
Space created
A glimpse of freedom
Only to be taken
With a roar
A rumble
Soul-jarring, earth-shaking clatter
In the wee hours of the night
Morning dawns
Radiant sunshine
A shimmering blanket of snow
Opposes azure skies
Gear up!
A lung-filling, satisfying breath of icy air awaits
Come, momentum, come!
The path is clear…perfectly
Clear?
That overnight roar
That overnight rumble
Plowed in.
Another obstacle
Another barrier to break through
Progress pushed back
Plow through.
Plow through.
