Your Health - poem

From brushing your teeth
to combing your hair
From whom you choose to sleep with
to cleaning your ears
What you put in your body temple
and how often it comes out
You are in charge of your health
that is without a doubt.

Halle Berry had diabetes 
and she took sugar out of her diet
So she wouldn’t be a slave to the insulin
you should try it.
To keep your blood pressure down
and your cholesterol too
Limit milk and cheese
choose to bake it, not fry it.

And drugs, drugs – don’t fill your lungs with smoke
meth, mollies, crack, alcohol and coke
With those toxins in your body
it’ll be hard to get ahead
Look at Whitney, living proof
drugs will turn a diva dead.

You want to keep your heart rate up 
and your body weight down
Exercise, don’t be lazy
just laying around
Playing video games
and watching TV
Living a sedentary lifestyle
will lead to a life of dis-ease.

And you don’t have to pop pills
for every little pain
There are natural herbs and remedies
that grow for our gain.
Doctor’s visits and hospital bills
it truly is a system that actually kills
More people each year
than it actually saves
Only you can keep you
from going to the grave.

So take yourself seriously
mind and body health
Because a strong, solid temple
is your only true wealth!
