    have you made friends 
    with your body?
    
    what exercise does it like?
    what food fuels it best?
    what energizes it
    and relaxes it?
    
    can it stretch?
    can it run?
    can it dance?
    
    oh, you’re not sure
    
    well, friend,
    if you don’t mind my saying . . . 
    you are still breathing
    so it’s not too late
    to discover
    what an amazing friend
    your body
    can be

    so, you ate a donut
    it ain't no big deal, honey
    just make sure
    the next time you open 
    that sweet mouth
    you drop in
    a carrot
    a pile o’ broccoli
    a handful of blueberries
    some steamed spinach
    and a beet
    mmhmm, a beet
    you’re welcome, honey
