A basal metabolic index,
A measure of our inner fire,
A gauge of how our bodies work,
A reflection of our deepest desire.
It tells us how much we burn,
Just to keep our systems going,
A metabolic engine that churns,
Day and night, never slowing.
It's a number we can't ignore,
For it reveals our metabolic health,
A vital piece of information,
That affects our physical wealth.
So pay attention to your BMI,
And take care of your inner flame,
For a healthy body is a gift,
That we should never take for shame.
