After an Excellent Workout
October 8, 2025
After an excellent workout, the creative side overwhelms—
A reflection on a brief retirement,
And my whispered elegy
When I dive—
Off the cliff,
I hope the water
Is a soft, warm,
Enveloping
Embrace—
A placenta
For my future.
Have you ever felt that urgency—
When there is
No time
To do enough
Before
I kiss
Life’s bouquet
And
Say hello
To the lid
Of life’s cremains?
In reflection:
I’ve chased dreams,
Loved fiercely—
But now,
Just
Scribble poetry
That cradles
Fleeting moments—
And
Still,
Let me feel that water.
I scribble today
To relive
Those beautiful moments
When memory
Is almost gone—
And the dive…
is imminent.
I will be
Smiling
With transcendence,
Wrapped in
The soothing water
Of a peaceful
Embrace.
