at the party
Monday, June 25th 2007
at the partyi sat in my chair
and watched
all the people go by
eating hot dogs
and burgers
and key lime pie
at the party
i wasnt tempted
by the cold buffet
chicken salad
and cheese dips
i passed by each tray
not a cold one
a brewski
or a glass of chablis
no, i didnt indulge
i simply enjoyed
the good company
but like a sore thumb
i still stuck out
as the heaviest one there
without a doubt
i only knew the host
and one other couple

chocolate beware
Saturday, June 23rd 2007
i like a treatevery now and then
a little chocolate
is never a sin
i enjoy a chip
a nut or a fry

would sure make me smile
not out of control
and no...

meanwhile, i had a su...
observations on broccoli
Thursday, June 21st 2007
the other daymy niece
being tortured by
the broccoli on her plate
asked me why broccoli
didnt taste like ice cream
because if it did
she would eat it all
this astute child
with the inquisitive mind
even took it one step further
by saying
if all vegetables tasted like ice cream
everyone would eat a lot more
how wise of her
first, I laughed
and wholeheartedly agreed
with her observations
on broccoli
and all things green
but then I told her
life woul...

mirrorsthey dont lie
but they can fool you
sometimes
especially when you
are alone
at home
its there
where we see
what we want to see
not what is really there
its alone
when we see our profile
and think
well thats not too bad
and for the moment
we believe
its ok to be this size
and then we go out
it doesnt matter where
just anywhere
where a mirror
a window perhaps
reflects our image
and we see what
everyone else can see
