Desert Dessert
–
Weight reading high,
Scale breathes a sigh.
Salad is served,
no sweets deserved.
–
Friend brings a pie.
Catches my eye.
Getting my plate,
Then stop, say WAIT!
–
Can’t eat dessert.
desire desert
My clothes don’t fit
I must diet.
–
Diets don’t work,
They’re just a quirk.
Must change routine
If to be lean.
–
Walk, run a mile.
Do for a while.
Eat a small bite
Dessert sized right
–
Clothes fitting right,
Look a good sight.
Still weigh a lot,
But in shape got.
