Welcome to Cozy Poetry Corner by Debra A Winter (Richter)

“I Love to Eat! Carbohydrates are fun to eat!“

Ice cream, ice cream its everywhere,

More calories than I can bear.

Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry galore–

I’m too big now but still fit through the door.

I eat and eat and never think,

Then wash it down till my eyes turn pink.

Mom ma warned me to watch what I eat,

She also said, “Eat lots of meat!”

But did I listen to her sweet words?

No! I Let them fly off with the birds.

Now I’m so heavy, I barely move,

With candy hiding in every groove.

Nutrition is fine when you don’t overeat,

But to me, sugar is my tummy’s favorite treat.

It needs to be sweet, not salty, nor sour;

I got to have something sweet every single hour.

Yet my monies are running low,

I got to eat economically, so…

I can enjoy life, anyway I can,

If I die, just bury me in my van.

Anyone, have a banana split!
