The most precious wealth
Is your health!
A healthy you is a better you
Or suffer all illness and flu
So many options to be fit
Come on, move your muscles for a bit
Endorphins released by our brain
Make us feel positive and brings a change
Spend some time in focused thoughts
Create and maintain human bonds
Yoga and exercise you got to do
Else your joints will be stiff as glue
Healthy foods you got to eat
Just like salads or nuts and meat
Also have a Mediterranean diet
It helps increase your weight and height
Running and jogging are the best
If you run daily you need not do the rest
Sleep plays an important role
To stay mentally active and reach the goal
Explore new ideas to work upon
Create and maintain a close human bond
Be socially involved by meeting friends
Don’t forget that to complete there are errands
One more thing can you guess
It’s the opposite of a big mess
Right, it’s keeping your room and yourself clean
For keeping your mind healthy you practise hygiene
It is so easy to be fit as a flea
Along with being full of glee
Good mental health helps you enjoy life
Offers a feeling of well-being and stay hi-fi
Stay healthy stay safe!
