In the hush before the dawn breaks,
A solitary path unfurls its length,
The rhythm of feet whispers to the earth,
A promise of distance, of strength.

The trees stand as silent witnesses,
To the breath that mingles with the breeze,
Each step a dialogue with the ground,
A dance with shadows, beneath the trees.

The horizon stretches wide and open,
Inviting every stride, every leap,
The heart, a drumbeat of purpose,
As dreams awaken from their sleep.

In this solitude, a connection blooms,
Between the soul and the open sky,
A journey of miles yet untold,
As the sun rises, and whispers goodbye.
