Healthy Sun Tanning
Sun Tanning is healthy. Also, sun tanning relaxes you as well. It helps build vitamin D in your body.
Vitamin D is important to our health. However, skin cancer is a concern. Too much sun can cause skin cancer and too little can cause other cancers.
Never let yourself get a bad sunburn. However, sunscreen lotions also may be unhealthy. Use something more natural like olive oil or coconut oil.
Sun Tanning
Basking in the Sun
Many learned doctors do agree
The sun on my skin is healthy
And synthesizes the vitamin D
A good tan on my body
I love to see
As I lie in the sun
A throwback to the ancient past
My primitive brain relaxes
My modern brain does too
I slather on some olive oil
And bask in the sun for a while
Careful not to overdo the first few
The exposure time must be short
The intensity of the rays
And who I am
And where I be
Don’t want to burn
You see
Must not wash off
The natural body protection
Must tolerate the smell
For a few days
While the skin browns
If I burn like some do
The penalty could be
Cancerous and death
Must be careful
And not turn red
