Lee Degnan - Juniper Hill Road

Pedaling at a steady pace,
I arrive at this special place
warm sun pushing at my back
added to the strength of my attack
Pedaling now, a harder and faster pace,
imagining I'm one in a huge race
Doing as I've done many times before
made conquering this paramount all the more
Juniper Hill Road, you are now mine!
You've beaten me for the very last time!
I know all your secrets now oh so well,
Your time has come, as far as I can tell!
Pedaling furiously, I see the summit
Victory felt so close, so I gun it
Over the top my brother sees me rise,
exhiliration consumes me at seeing his surprise!
Being kid sister he teases me so well,
But for all his doubting though-
he can go to hell!

Lee Degnan
