Jan Allison Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Inspired having read Arthur Vaso's poem Christmas Dinner

My New Year's Resolution

My new year's resolution is I’m going to get thinner
So I purchased  a 'Weightwatchers’ meal as a  TV dinner
When I looked at the ingredients I discovered it’s a racket
There is more nutritional value if had I eaten the blinking packet!

Caleah Buil January 5, 2015 at 1:06 PM HA!!! This is too cute!! I love the humor in this and your tone. So lighthearted. Do watch out for those ingredients! Not everything is "natural" or "organic" nowadays. This poem brought a smile to my face. Great write. :) Jan Allison January 5, 2015 at 1:51 PM Thanks Caleah I try to write with humour as much as possible - I have never been on a diet in my life lol its just a fun write:-) Hugs jan xx
