Worked Out
They told me I’d improve my health, if I exercised,
So I thought I’d join a club, just as they advised,
Yoga? Tai Chi? Boxing? Barre? Zumba? Boot Camp? more?
The choices are so vast, it seems, with types and toils galore,
I chose aerobics. Seemed like fun. I showed up at the gym,
And ducked into the change room, more than ready to get slim!
Then what a workout! Jumping, twisting, gyrating an hour,
I tell you when this all was done, I’d clearly earn a shower!
Flushed with success, quite sure that I’d burned calories en masse,
I’d fin’ly got my leotard on...then found I’d missed the class!

And we love her, you know that’s true,
So this is what we writers do . . .
We craft a poem based on a theme,
With pencils, sharp, and eyes agleam,
Each month we write and have such fun
We can't wait for another one,
Sooo...this month, how well did I do?
Please go and see the others, too.
