Ramblings of a Northern Girl - PD in Poetry 2023 - Week 2 - The Dome

We are trailblazers of the humble kind

These tenacious, determined brothers and I.

Bound together by powerful purpose,

Love of life, laughter, football.

We are gifted, blessed, funny champions

Persistent in our quest.

Victorious in the ambush

Of our unforgiving opponent.

As we step into the dome

We leave behind our awkward, ungainly world

And embrace the freedom and joy

As we watch each other fly.
