Exercise To Exorcise

Exercise to exorcise
  the masquerade in your head
that profound-thought-parade
  vapidity in sly disguise

Exercise will clear the cobwebs
  from that brain of yours
Your cerebral spiders
  poetic weaving yearn to do

Exercise to break a sweat
  to alter your stale mindset
From darkness, gloom and doom
  Fresh new flowers start to bloom

Exercise may not be a panacea
  but it helps unleash vibrant new ideas

I totally agree! Very good to keep the sound mind via sound body.

And I agree with you, Kathy. That mind-body balance is crucial. Happy Thursday evening, Gershon

You're right, Joe: Exercise warms that internal engine. Happy trails, Gershon
