My Poem, Health Fuel, to be Published in Textbook

Poetry

I am pleased to announce that the Pilot Publishing Company Ltd., an educational publishing company in Hong Kong that produces textbooks for the local secondary schools, and who are going to publish an English book, has asked to use my poem Health Fuel in their book. Publication date: 2009.

Tentative Title: Teach & Practise - Paper 1 Reading (Secondary 4)

Note: They spell practice with an s.

Health Fuel

Growing old is wonderful

Because the other alternative is death

Therefore, cling to your life, stay healthy

And cherish every life-giving breath.

Keep the body busy with activity

Dance joyously to your favorite tune

Go for a long walk in the afternoon

Or take an evening stroll under the moon.

Nurture the body and mind daily

By eating healthy foods you need

Forget those words, “I don’t like…”

And realize that food acts like a seed

What goes in your mouth can help or hurt you

By making you sick or keeping you well

You should feel good all the time

If not, mind and body will quickly tell.

We love sugar, we love fast food

We cater to the things we want and desire

Thus, sometimes destroying good health

Before we realize what foods we require.

So here’s a clue to help you with diet;

If you wake up feeling less than good that day

Consider what you’ve been eating lately

And start a balanced diet without delay.

Free e-books, mystery, suspense, drama, romance
