Splurge
Have a beer and fries with lunch,
Then a piece of chocolate cake.
How much can a person eat?
Though it seems like a mistake...
It's not quite, but just because
There's a reason to indulge.
When you're on vacation, you
Don't think about a budding bulge.
Try a bit of this and that;
Add gelato or some pie.
If your pants won't zip, at least
You'll have a solid reason why.
Do not fret -instead, enjoy!
You're away; don't fight the urge.
In a flash, you'll be back home,
So on vacation - splurge, splurge, splurge!
