Heed Thine Own Advice

The First Lady wants us all to lose weight

     Have you seen her from the stern as of late

          Eat smaller portions says she

               Well here is my repartee

                    Heed thine own advice before you dictate

Oooh, naughty, naughty picking on Michelle's "stern," Bob. I did have to laugh though. But now I'm ashamed of myself. If anyone asks, I'll point the finger at you. My bad -- you bad too. Love it! Carolyn
