A Gorgeous Fatty!!

Bodyweight !.. I constantly gain.. Diet Regime ..gone in vain... My body- totally out of shape.. Gymnasium is a total waste! Huge shoes and clothes size-jumbo, They tease me"Fatty Little Bumbo". They say I'm fat and call me a ball, Or they say I am huge wall. Elephant, Hippo , they call me animal names, All these words put me to total shame.. Hydrogen balloon , I am to some, Hurting comments..yet I keep mum.. With tears rolling down my chubby cheeks.. Lonely and dejected I sit on the beach.. "Yes I'm Fat!", I scream aloud.. "Yet I'm happy and very proud!" Confidence rises with my self esteem, Happy and joyful, now I seem, To all hurting comments, with a "Thank you" I smile Leaving commenters surprised for a while.. Slowly though, one day they ask.. "Don't you feel like taking us to task ?" "We hurt you and call out names to you.. And you only respond with a polite Thank you?" To Them I say "Yes!, I'm fat.. So you tell me how to solve that ? All diet and efforts have gone in vain.. Does that mean I live in shame ?" "Comments from you , the beautiful! Are compliments for me -the ugly fat Bull!" My words make them feel terrible.. For ridiculing me they feel miserable.. Soon, towards me their attitudes change.. "Lady!! You are very beautiful! " together they claim "Your inner beauty triumphs over our appearance.. Fat is Ugly..is our wrong inference.." "Ultimate beauty !..is the beauty within... That matters more..than being thin.". Then they say "You are a gorgeous little beauty".. And I wink" A gorgeous little fatty"!!
