So this exercise
On and about the change
Poetry seems cleaner
Harder to say
But it’ll all come back
Like it always does anyway

Doctors would us ostracise
But now, that we are old and frail
They make us exercise

For exercise isn’t my forte

Premium Member THANKFUL FOR WALKING

Today I’m thankful for walking…
as exercise fads come and go…
I continue to be enthralled
by the simple act of walking
the oldest exercise of all.

Of Things Passing

From the
Deep velvet blue skies
I got my freedom
and my promise
I gave away both
To the
Dirt beneath the waters
All in exercise
Of things passing
