It's All In The Attitude

ATTITUDE

Miss Pessimist:(

I know it's getting late
And I really need to rise.
I would rather go to sleep
Than get up and exercise.
I'll reset the alarm
And pull the covers over my head.
Just the thought of exercise
Fills me with an awful dread!
Exercise makes me sweat
And my muscles get sore.
If you want me to be honest,
I find it a bore.
Exercise makes me tired
So I eat a quick snack
To sooth the boredom
And get my energy back.
A box of Twinkies
Gives my glucose a zap!
Now I'm feeling rum-dum,
I must take a nap.
As I doze off to sleep
My worst nightmare begins;
I dream I'm working out
At my neighborhood gym!
If confession is good
Then I will not deny
How much I dislike
Any exercise!

Miss Optimist;)
It is early morning
And I'm eager to rise,
Ready to start my day
With some great exercise!
Though the fleshly part of me
Desires to stay in bed,
The thought of exercise
Motivates me instead.
While exercise makes me sweat
And I sometimes get sore,
It builds my strength
And gives me energy galore!
And should I get tired
I'll have a spiritual snack
Feasting on God's Word
To get my energy back.
No sugary junk food
Will pass by my lips
To go from my tummy
And onto my hips.
I love to daydream
Of being physically fit.
I will reach my goal.
So I will not quit!
If confession is good
Then I cannot deny
How much I love
To exercise!

Dear Pat,
You are welcome! I give the credit to the Lord. He allows me the privilege of signing my name to His compositions. I am always thrilled when anyone is blessed by the stroke of my pen and God's inspiration.
