"Bonnie's Marathon"

Life is like a marathon race and pacing myself is hard.
I am tired of coming in last place, because that is not my style.
I play the cards that were dealt to me but goldfish is not my game.
I would like to have a full house just every once in a while.
But all that seems to come my way is five card draw.
I will keep on trucking because God is at the wheel.
Giving up is not an option even if I have to be on auto pilot every once in a while.
This is for you Bonnie, and for all that are strong.
