Rainy Monday Morning Motivation Excercise

PAD Challenge Day 25; For today’s prompt, write an exercise poem.



Trip-tumble,
Slip-stumble,
Grip-grumble,
Oh, wow
This is the edict
Of hand to the plow

Be tender,
Surrender,
Defender
Of joy
Beauty of duty,
…life's sun-rain alloy

Reach higher,
Inspire,
Dusk’s fire
Bittersweet
Heaven above us
Spills stars at our feet

Be patient,
Creation
Does not ask God
'Why?' 
Rains splays in windows
Reflecting hope's sky

Live lowly,
Give wholly,
Love slowly
And then
Treasure each measure
Of mercy,
Amen
