Healthy Body.

Goldfinch60



In this life we want to keep well,

To try and keep healthy all the time.

What we need to realise

Is that health need not come from medicine,

It comes from many other things.

Peace in the mind,

Peace in the heart

Are ways of keeping well.

But mostly it comes from within you,

From laughter,

But mainly it comes from love,

So keep that love for others,

For others to see,

To maintain your healthy life.

    Good write Gold. Were we healthy in 1066? Well, Harold wasn't, when I said 'Look up, Sire'. There's olden day tales of chucking refuse and waste out of windows - urgh!

  • Michael Edwards

    A great message and, in my case, cut down on the wine.

      Thank you Michael. As I say to many "everything in moderation".

          Your poem is a heartwarming and insightful perspective on what it means to live a healthy life. It beautifully encapsulates the idea that true wellness involves nurturing our minds, hearts, and relationships, and that love and laughter are essential components of a healthy, fulfilling life. 🙏🏻🕊👍🏻
