Twenty miles, then twenty miles, <br /> then twenty miles again. <br /> We’ll keep on walking, day by day, <br />towards breast cancer’s end. <br /> <br />With every step, with every stair, <br />We train to walk this path <br />To raise the funds to fight the beast <br />And consign it to the past.. <br /> <br />It will be hot, It may be wet <br />As we traverse the miles <br />and when we rest, beneath the stars, <br />We’ll sleep like stones awhile <br /> <br />With every step, with every mile <br />We’re walking towards a cure <br />And we would walk a thousand miles <br />To end its’ reign for sure.. <br /> <br />If not in time for one we loved <br />Perhaps in time for others- <br />So many suffer scars or worse <br /> where death’s dark angel hovers. <br /> <br />Twenty miles, then twenty miles, <br /> then twenty miles again. <br /> We’ll keep on walking, day by day, <br />towards breast cancer’s end.<br /><br />John F.
