A New Year's Story
''Twas the month after Christmas and all through the house,
nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
The cookies I'd nibbled, the eggnog I'd taste
at the holiday parties had all gone to waist.
When I got on the scales there arose such a number!
When I walked through the house, less a walk than a lumber!
I remembered the marvelous meals I'd prepared: the gravies, the sauces, the beef nice and rared;
the wine and the rum balls, the bread and the cheese, and the way I had never said,
'No thank you, please.'
As I dressed myself in my husband's old shirt,
and prepared once again to do battle with dirt,
I said to myself as only I can, 'You can spend the whole winter disguised as a man!'
So- away with the last of the sour cream dip,
get rid of the fruitcake, every cracker and chip.
Every last bit of food that I like must be banished,
'till all of the additional ounces have vanished.
I won't have a cookie, not even a lick.
I'll want only to chew on a long celery stick.
I won't have hot biscuits,
or corn bread, or pie.
I'll munch on a carrot
and quietly cry.
I'm hungry, I'm lonesome,
and life is a bore.
But...
isn't that what January is for?
Unable to giggle, no longer a riot.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD DIET!"
