Day 23- Write a seven line poem that begins with “it’s true that fresh air is good for the body” (from Frank O’Hara’s poem “Ave Maria”) and ends with “this is our body” (from Gary Snyder’s “The Bath”).
It’s true that fresh air is good for the body,
The oxygen lives in our very bones.
It resides in each and every drop of blood,
Thrives in nature, in and out of ourselves.
The trees, like us, rely on it;
Nature, our physical being,
This is our body.
