This diet calls for seven containers,
large, medium, small, all in bright colors;

And all this for a $60 fee,
Have some already for free,

Again, a diet to make me lighter.

Oh broken wings sounds so sad for a handle. I loved the rhymes on lines 3 & 4. and the poem was a good illustration of the quote. Smile, Agape, Moses

oh yes, Constance, if there was ever anything insane, it would have to be doing crazy diets over and over again. VERY good idea.

Your poem is so witty! If we had only empty containers, just think how much "lighter" all of us would be! Unfortunately for me, a psychologist told me I was doing just what Einstein's definition of insanity is. Oh well, let's just smile! Best wishes in John's contest. I'm glad to hear he's back on the Soup. Love, Carolyn
