Notes About The Poem

Greedy Guts - Do Join In the Collaboration

My auntie’s best friend Liselotte Adores making sweet panna cotta Auntie’s over the moon Grabs an enormous spoon Then greedily gobbles the lotta! By piling sweet treats on her plate Poor auntie starts putting on weight She steps on the scales Then curses and wails Must diet before it's too late Written by Jan Allison Jan's Auntie has become quite a glutton Feasting on panna cotta and mutton Now her butt crack's exposed I'm keeping my eyes closed Zipper's broken, and she popped a button She devoured the custard and the Chablis She's drunk and ready to go Full Monty Not trying to be rude But her plump rump, nude Would bring about nightmares to haunt me Written by Lin Lane 1/10/20 Jan's huge auntie had a weakness for cheese When offered seconds always said" yes please" She was known as' big Nelly' Because of her fat belly And her large boobies hung down to her knees... She went off with her friends to sunny Spain But would have needed three seats on the plane Although it was freezing cold Nelly opted for the hold On landing they had to use a large crane... Written by Tom Cunningham Jan's too full Auntie crashes on the bed complaining her guts hurt from too much bread she lands with a loud pop expelling gas nonstop and yelling that was a relief, she said Jan's Uncle is so tired he wants to sleep He enters the bedroom, the stench is deep Auntie is passed out snoring like a trout He runs back onto the couch with a leap Written by Tania Kitchin She went straight back to see Liselotte and ate MORE of that thick panacotta! But she’s full of regret for right now she’s beset by a quiver that’s making her totter. The doctor explained. “If you gobble too much of that stuff, then you’re nobbled! You can run, you can sweat off the calories - yet you will NEVER get rid of the wobble!” WRITTEN BY NINA PARMENTER

I think many of us tend to have a few treats over Christmas, not stepped on the scales so I don't know if I have lol but I am fortunate as my weight tends to be pretty stable:-) hugs Jan xx

:) Love it, Jan! And it's timely because people often put on weight over the holidays. I ventured onto the scale last night thinking I might have gained, but I have actually lost more weight. But there are times I've felt like your auntie! Much enjoyed! Love, Carolyn

Too much panna cotta will do that to you. This was fun Jan. Nice to see you writing again.
