It's Time to Reduce

Contributed by norm on Thursday, 8th January 2004 @ 03:29:14 PM in AEST
Topic: HumorPoetry



I went in the vale and I stepped on the scale,
I felt very warm and I started to pale,
The numbers thereon told a terrible tale,
I looked for a fork on which I could impale.

What a fool 'cause I ate everything on the plate,
I was looking for more; it would take me to sate,
I started to shake for the total I read,
Made me hope for some other number instead.

To say it was high, I will tell you no lie,
Ice cream and cake, and blueberry pie,
Was the fare that I ate, It's no wonder my weight,
Reached a plateau that I thoroughly hate.

We will start the new year, without bottled beer,
And anything else that will not make me cheer,
I know not of you not the size of your waist,
Nor your ability to cut, copy or paste.

We know you are you and we know I am I,
Enough is enough and I say with a sigh,
Get out of the chair and go with a bound,
So that next year, you'll be trim, not too round..

I liked this poem. It states something most people are afraid to say.

Shucks Durn there Norm...fella' I blew the scales over a year ago....i'm honest, i'm fair, and could ever write here.....but i know you are right....trim as a fiddle for next year!
But when you ask me to give up my wonderful Irish Dream of a Crememeemem
I'd rather be fat, than frozen stiff and thin!
Hehehe
