The Poem<\/strong><\/p>\n

This little ditty is plain and simple. The message is work out, eat right and you will be healthy and happy. I wish I could hear the music that goes with the words, but the song died with the singer. No doubt this would have been a great, upbeat, work out song.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Picture<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the largest and most detailed painting created for this blog so far. My intention was to capture the action and strength of the back flip. The message echo\u2019s the poem. Physical vitality and human spirit are developed through exercise. Exercise is uplifting.<\/p>\n

Work Out Song<\/strong><\/p>\n

Good to go and get your work out on<\/p>\n

Good to go and get your body strong<\/p>\n

If you like to eat and play all day<\/p>\n

Listen to the healthy words I say<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you want to get your mind in tune<\/p>\n

Take a listen what you got to do<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t eat the bad stuff that will take away<\/p>\n

A healthy body that you use all day<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

So what you do is chose wise healthy food<\/p>\n

And even if you are not in the mood<\/p>\n

Get off your butt and get your exercise<\/p>\n

And you will get a great big prize<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Health! Health! and a happy mind<\/p>\n

Kind of go together when you take some time<\/p>\n

So keep a focus on it every day<\/p>\n

And look at it like a little way to play<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

And when you\u2019re fighting a bad attitude<\/p>\n

Put on some music to get you in the mood<\/p>\n

No need to worry about your appetite<\/p>\n

Working out will make that part all right<\/p>\n
