falling down
Tuesday, June 26th 2007
when I was smalland skinned a knee
my hero would come
and rescue me
shed hug me
and hold me
and dry all my tears
shed feed me
and bathe me
and calm all my fears
she made me feel
like the queen of france
she listen to my music
and at night,
we would dance
she was there
to pick me up
whenever Id fall
she loved her kids
fiercely
nothing else mattered
at all
delusions of a childhood
a picture that i paint
my mom wasnt an angel

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
some rocky road
or blueberry pie
ill pass by the salad
and unsweetened tea
just to taste that lemon cake
yes, it is calling to me
a glass of merlot
or a nice cold beer
makes a meal complete
a few times a year
im not asking for much
just every once in awhile
a cheesecake, new york style
would sure make me smile
not out of control
and no...
a slight change of pace for me

good morning my ck friends,i have decided to take a short break from my "poetry" blogging. i struggled the past couple of days to come up with something unique to write about. yesterday wasn't a home run, but i liked it. however, i don't want to try and force the words out every morning. one thing is a constant is that they do come from my heart and hopefully reflect the struggle we share in this weight loss battle. i promise i'll be back next week.
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...
