Definition: Act or instance of running, of moving rapidly using the feet.
Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look!
We’ve got a word today that’s quite a treat,
‘Runs,’ it’s called, and oh so sweet!
The dictionary tells us, clear and bright,
“Act or instance of running, with all your might!”
Think about a speedy little hare,
Darting through the fields with joyful flair.
Or maybe you are jogging, feeling free,
Moving quickly – that’s what ‘runs’ can be!
It's not just
walking
, slow and steady too,
‘Runs’ means moving fast, for me and you.
It could be a river flowing down below,
Or a program crashing, moving slow-slow-slow! (Though we don't want that, let's hope it won't!)
So, “runs” means to move with speed, you see,
Using your feet – as happy and free!
Do you have any questions about this word so grand?
