Heavy Going

RoseAnn Malone resolved to lose weight.
She made a list of foods to forsake.
She did well 'till week four
eating more than before.
Airlines had to bill her at the freight rate.

Thank you, Jan. Hearing from you sends my ego soaring. I'm at that doddering age now, but perhaps there's a poem or two left in me. Your kind response gives me hope. Hugs, Paul.

Hello Paul Schneiter, Limericks are hard to create. Well I find it hard to write one. Yet I see nothing wrong with it. Merry Christmas have a nice day my friend.

Darlene, thank you for commenting on my limerick. It's not one of my better efforts (muse seems to have abandoned me). I'll try to do better next time.
