Marguerite's New Diet -Edited

Marguerite -
how she'd cheat!
She would eat
something sweet
for a treat.

All for that,
got MORE fat.
Oops! She sat
on her cat.
It went splat!

Between my high school years, many moons ago, And now, Have a choc, or chock muffin every day, I weigh, 5 kilos, more in this day, sometimes less, what can I say, Solemn truth, yes, not a nay. However after both my pregnancies had to diet long and hard and with a determined will. Your poem is humorous and enjoyable my friend, hope you are keeping well, and that you have a happy, healthy and awesomely wonderful 2022. love and hugs, Jennifer

Hilarious, and well-written, too. Andrea, I thoroughly enjoyed your monorhyme stanzas. Just perfect for the contest.

Good fix Andrea. Many contests I thought about entering our closing. I just got my sonnet into the Valentine contest in time. I need to check if you entered it too. You, the expert with the sonnet form, will most likely shine with blinding light! Hugs Connie xxoo
