Liz Walsh Poet Free verse

Dreaming On a Diet

Raspberries
Young, tender and succulent
Smothered in cream
Yellow fluffy omelets 
Garnished with herbs 
Eve's pudding bathing in custard
- temptingly -
Mushroom risotto
-a gourmet delight -
Served with green salad
plus chips and icecream!
A glass of white wine - Pinot Grigio
slightly chilled
- decadence -
Madness sets in - slowly
I imagine how happy I'll be when I'm slim
A young flirty lover
With lips made of chocolate
Just waiting for kissing
Delicious and sweet
Courting my taste buds
- disgracefully -

Carolyn Devonshire November 6, 2011 at 10:52 AM Liz, I've actually had dreams like this when dieting. I think the brain is trying to tempt us in our sleep. Yummy dishes await in your poem! Love, Carolyn
