NaPoWriMo 2020 Day 20 - The Walk


The Walk and Finds 

We're going for more walks now 
that we're staying in 
Doctors' orders*

And on those neighborhood walks 
we find little things 
And bring them home 

There's some bushes down the street 
wee flowers in bloom 
Pick two or three 

Bring them home make a bouquet 
every day to see 
Smell just a whiff 

Another flower to be 
thistle a foot tall 
Bring it home to stay 
Wife says "No way" 

* Upon discharge from care,  back surgery, disc repair, my doctor said, "Walk 30 minutes a day, five times a week.  On the same day Mrs. Jim's doctor called, ended with the same advice.  Different practices, different specialties.   Providence?  Scary.

I so enjoy walks like that..walks where you can stop and admire and sneak a bloom. :)

It's lovely to go on such walks, and one thing we're still allowed, indeed encouraged to do (not in too much company!) in these days of coronavirus.
