TMI...?


Poem Artwork

I got out of the house,

And went to the shore,

Dinner & friends, anything but a bore,

I ate way Too much,

Rode home feeling out of touch…

 

I didn’t get a walk on the beach,

I felt too bloated and full,

Just two days prior I was still sick,

And just like a stupid dick,

I ate more than my share,

And that ain’t no bull…

 

Home I did get and tried to get comfy,

But with all that food in me, it wasn’t to be,

As I sat down to watch the tube,

It was like the food was just a lot of lube,

Up it came & I lost it all sure,

After having such a wonderful dinner,

And being able to watch the moon over the Jersey shore…

Ed,

Tsk, tsk, think we all may overdid a bit Ed. But I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving anyway, and the walk on the beach sounds wonderful. Peace!

I think we all overindulge
When it comes to eating...
Difficult sometimes to discipline
ourselves

Feel better

Love and Light

The moon is symbolic and that has to be a "silver lining." Love and peace,

I thoroughly enjoyed this. My heart goes out to the poet who wrote this sad but glad story. I only hope that the new year will find you full of your old self again.
