Lunchbreak

My stomach is rumbling it needs feeding
I must have my lunch my stomach is pleading
What have I got in my lunchbox hey?
A sandwich, a banana and crisps today

A wonderful feast awaits me this lunch
When I get home I will just have some brunch
So I will have my lunch now then rest a bit
Then back to work again fighting fit

Do I want a chocolate bar from the shop?
Or an ice cream cornet with a flake on top
I might just settle for a biscuit or two
To dip in my coffee, yes that will do

I might read a book or a mag while I am eating
Or run round the block to get my heart beating
I must go now because its time for my break
If I don’t get it now it will be too late to take

Ah, Pamela, a poem to which we can all relate. I'll take the ice cream, please, as after reading this, I'm now feeling "My stomach is rumbling" too. Very nice! Love, Carolyn
