healthier to broaden my outlook
rather than dwell on woeful news
that spirals me into the blues
best to engage with a good book
walk cycle sing sew bake or cook
distraction a healthier diet
rather than engage with such blight
no need to indulge like a ghoul
it adds fuel and that’s too cruel
create polished poems and write

some serious competition on the river! my pic
