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.

Note: The two yellow flowers I picked at a different place the next day.
I so enjoy walks like that..walks where you can stop and admire and sneak a bloom. :)
ReplyDeleteIt'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.
