I'll eat prime rib without the guilt
Potatoes heaped with sour cream
No diet will be in this scheme
My strategy is "not" to win
Those chocolates will not be a sin
That wine has sugar, yes I know
I just don't care, so let it flow
No gym for me, please don't look glum
I kind of really like my bum
You think it's just a bit too wide?
Never mind...I'll decide
This New Year I will place no bets
No skinny jeans, I like my sweats
I will not take a silly oath
To stop the habits that I loath
Ah, this New Year will be sweet
Lots of baked goods and red meat
Pressures off, no lies to tell
I am on course...straight to Hell!
Happy New Year Everyone!

Post a CommentI really like the word to this poem. It takes the pressure off.
This is so great!
I LOVE this poem and totally agree. We reach an age where the only person we have to please is ourself.
LOL. Totally funny. I've always lived my life like I wanted. Lucky for me I liked veggies, fruit and exercise.
Totally on board with you, Cathy! Life's too unpredictable, so I eat dessert first! Happy 2010!
