Get up get moving do not wait
Fussing makes one hesitate
There’s one excuse after another
Listless, you won’t even bother
The days flow into months, then years
All gumption in you disappears
Before you know it, you’re morose
A shell of former self, a ghost
You struggle with what you’ve become
Your feet and spirit *sigh, ho hum
When all it takes is just one step
And soon at stairs you’re quite adept
When once you laboured with a few
You now leap up in bounds of two
All obstacles you feared to face
Win on win will take its place
I know your heart beats just as quick
When you meet hurdle you can lick
What satisfaction comes with pride
To call up all that zeal inside
So cast off sloth and seize the day
Yell at what blocks, “Get out my way!”
No second thoughts, get up and go-
Your heart and health will thank you so!
