Only in My Spirit Only in my spirit can I still run up a green grassy
hill. Only in my spirit can I still skip along a shady park path. Only
in my memory can I still run in out of the cold windy weather or walk along
the beach. Only in my heart can I still dance to the music. And as real
as it may seem, it is only in my dreams I still soar and glide with ease.
There is no effort or pain, no heavy dragging of feet. In my spirit and
in my dreams, My heart is so light. My steps are so sure and my arms are
still strong and Yes, I can still run. - Linda Marshall
