FIVE TIMES A DAY

BRIAN & ANGELA

I like what I eat ~ I eat what I like

I try to keep fit by ridin' me bike

When I meet me Doctor ~ He'll always say

Have you been gettin' your five times a day ?

 

Five times of this ~ five times of that

Five times walkin' the dog

Five times feedin' the cat

When I phone me Mum ~ to make sure she's OK

She'll say BRIAN ~ are you gettin' 

Your five portions a day ?

 

Down at the Gym ~ I work and I pray

Try to keep slim ~ burn the calories away

My life coach ~ just smiles as with the weights I play

And then asks me BRIAN ~ as I peddle away

Are you frettin' an' sweatin' ~ five time a day

 

When I meet my Lady - for a "bite" at midday

As we share a pannini and low calorie coke

She'll ask me with straight face

Isabel does not joke !

With a hug and a kiss as I go on my way

BRIAN ~ have you enjoyed it ~ five times today ?

 

Five times to eat ~ five times to pray

Five hours to work hard ~ five hours to play

Five hours of cyber time  ~ nine hours to sleep

Some days I'm rushin' ~ some days I creep

I just have one question ~ as I go on my way

Friend are you getting your five blessings a day ?

 

Thanks for reading ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN  XOXOX

 

What five things are you getting / doing every day ?

  • Comment from author about the poem: We need to do lots of things five times a day ! Five glasses of water ~ five portions of fruit & veg ~ five hugs (if you can get them) ~ five periods of exercise (to keep trim) ~ five time to pray (to keep in tune spiritually) ~ five times to smile ~ to say thank you ~ to be helpful ~ the list is endless. So whatever motivates you in love or live ~ remember ~ FIVE TIMES A DAY ! Love BRIAN XOX

    Brian, this is quite a poem. I enjoy your rhythmic flow as I was reading it. The poem takes you by the hand and as you're reading through the words flow and calls your attention to get your five times a day. Nicely done!
