'Twas the month after Christmas
OK I have to admitt I stole this but it seemed so funny I had to share.
Twas the month after Christmas, and all through the house
nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste
at holiday parties had gone to my waist !
When I got on the scale, there arose such a number!
I walked to the store (less a walk...more the number)
I remember the marvelous meals I'd prepare
the gravies and saltsa and beef nice and "rare".
The wine and the rum balls, kourambie and cheese
and the way I'd never said, "no thank you, please".
As I dressed myself in my old house shirt
and prepared once again to do battle with dirt
I said to myself...as only I can
"you can't spent the winter disguised as a MAN !!!"
So...away with the last of the sour cream dip,
get rid of the fruit cake, every peanut and chip.
Every last bit of food that I like must be banished!
'Till all the additional "pounds" have vanished !!
I won't have a cookie, not even a lick
I will only chew on a long celery stick
I won't have hot biscuits, Tiramisu, or pie
I'll munch on a carrot...and quietly...cry . .
I'm HUNGRY, I'm lonesome, and life is a bore
but isn't that really what January is for?
Unable to giggle...no longer a riot
Happy New Year to All!!
.................... And to all? a good DIET !!!
