The living have an extra dimension

The body, it is a lifelong pension

Hosting our dreams and future

We’re required to offer it nurture

The body takes us places

When it is in the mind’s good graces

The body offers a warm home

Where the breath and blood roam

The body knows no retirement

It does not see rest as entitlement

The heart’s always open for business

A model for youthful fitness

Before the body gets old

Awareness may be turned into gold

The alchemist lives inside

When ego presides, permission’s denied
