The Thing I Love

You make me go round and round,
I love the way you make me sound
Hissing, grumping, all that comes out
Whenever I find you in huge amount

Aah! says my mouth when I look at you, 
With the lust and pleasure that fails to say adieu
You are the cloud of fancies that rises above,
When my brains get completely shoved off
I keep growling, I keep laughing
Without any horse sense I keep reckoning
For thy love I have for you is unbelievable,
Because without you I go miserable

So believe me, I can do anything to have you in lump
As without the sight of you all the seismograph jumps
I control myself sleeping talking with all the syllable missing
But yet can't halt my tummy from hallucinating

Yes it's the one I am uttering about,
All the food that keeps shutting my account
But whatever it is however it is
It keeps my senses on ground
Pasta,macaroni,chicken steak, spaghetti 
I look at them and go all fidgety
At times my heart suffers a serious agony
Because I know without food my life's a tragedy

Food glorious food goes the song, but eating problems (too much, too less) do exist and can be tackled successfully. As for me, I have to watch my cholesterol !! :) // paul

Thank you Paul for,stopping by. As you can see I am a hardcore foodie. And the funniest thing is when I am hungry and I don't get to eat, I almost feel as if someone broke my heart.. Lol. Well touchwood, I still don't have any ailments..hoping so that I should never get. :)
