When I don’t feel like
doing my routine, I look
back and ahead and begin.

When Stopped
When stopped may I not
narrow my vision, waiting
only to go once more.

Late, But Holding Firm – Day 53
Kept my commitment
to myself and though it’s late
I exercised anyway.
JDG
Me, You, And We
My is is not your
is, My was was not your was.
Knowing that, how can
we together agree
on what could, should, and will be?
Day 52, Unremarkable, But…
Unremarkable
workout except for the fact
that I am still doing it.

Just Testing
Some trees put out a
few gold leaves to tentatively
test the autumn air.

Who Knew?- Day 51
I never thought I’d
see the day when I stuck to
any exercise
routine this long, but I have
and, in truth, it’s not been bad.

Small Bird, Tiny Opening
Through a tiny opening a small bird
flies, filling for
a moment,
this space
with
its
small song.
Nothing is
asked, but if I
choose, I can pause and celebrate life too.

Not All Here – Day 50
My mind departs for
places, familiar but not
here, as my body
follows the routine that’s right
before me. Mind, please come home.
JDG
Grace, Gratitude, And Gumption
Today was a day
for going slow and breathing
deep the autumn air.
Grateful for this brief respite,
I did my best to beam, not bite.
