Jeff Connelly Poet I do not know?

Workout

i keep my
mind
fit

jogging
my memory
each and every

minute
but as
far as

my body i
abuse
by

eating too
much rich
food even

though
i'm poor
and pouring

down glass
after glass
of wine

and
or
beer

and so
i keep
myself

and my
self be
hind

closed doors
as much as
i can but

with
open
windows

Jan Allison November 13, 2019 at 4:57 PM Oh I can relate big time, i'm guilty of not exercising the body enough apart from walking, but poetry and puzzles keep my mind active Jeff:-) hugs jan xx Jeff Connelly November 13, 2019 at 5:25 PM Thanks Jan. I should know better and follow in my step father's steps. He recently turned 89. After retiring he umpires softball games and so stayed physically fit. He also would work during income tax time to keep his mind sharp.
