Indulgences

I've learned the error of my ways
That buying ice cream never pays

I sit and eat the whole shazam
Well what a little pig I am!

And donuts are another joy
I shouldn't have because oh boy!

I can't pass up a cream filled one
Trust me,the bellyache's no fun

Don't start me up on cheesecake dear
I can't control myself it's clear

So I will have to contemplate
The fruits and veggies I just ate

They'll keep me healthy that's for sure
But celery doesn't have the lure

Of sugar-laden fantasy
I'm stuffing chocolate-let me be!
