Exercise

for survival

Your fifty trillion cells

are begging for daily exercise

Take a short walk if you can

for good health to realize

Walking lets your mind rest

exercise is what you need

If you want to do your best

let your body take the lead

Circulation needs a healthy flow

so blood cells will not stagnate

More movement is the way to go

to avoid clots you might create

Health is about what you do

blood cells must do their work

Give them all the help you can

and exercise do not shirk

Keep the blood moving along

don't let it stop to form a clot

If what you eat is also wrong

still another problem you've got

When blood stops in the brain

consciousness may fade away

Life then will be all about pain

there is little more one can say

If these words are bothering you

just do what you know you must do

Eat carefully and go for a walk

action is better than any talk!
