Best Diet Poems


My Word Diet
Long poems are for the birds!
They have just too many words.

I like ‘em short and sweet,
Like something axiomatic that I can “tweet”.

Poems that appeal to people who are real,
Not some long spiel.

Long poems leave me cold.
By the time you’ve finished them you’re old!

“Keep it simple,...

Premium Member Fast Food On a Diet
View that cholesterol wad
Sizzling cheeseburger
Hold the veggies, add ketchup
Tape burger to thighs
Hungry heart pulsates
Thump, thump, thump
Stop!

Premium Member The Honey Diet
Anytime I feel hungry instead of eating a full meal I eat Honey.
The best part is that Honey doesn't mind, she's a sweetheart.

I bought a box of Animal Crackers.
On the box it said 
"Do not eat if seal is broken"
So I opened the...

Premium Member Diet Dilemma
I’m trying a new ‘see food’ diet
I’d recommend that you all try it
Any food will do
Nothing’s bad for you ...
It's no wonder my trousers don’t fit!

Premium Member Diet Footles
Sweet tooth
In youth

On scales
She WAILS!

Hot date
Lose weight

Diet?
Try it

Big eyes
Large thighs

Fat tum
Huge bum

Gobbles…
Wobbles

In mood
For food

Crunchies
Munchies

Wants choc -
Whole block!

Adore
Fridge door

Keeps shut
With butt

Risk it ...
Biscuit

Crispbread?
Drop dead!

Think thin
As pin

Eats less ...
New dress

Now slim
And trim

Look great
For date

Dreaming On a Diet
Raspberries
Young, tender and succulent
Smothered in cream
Yellow fluffy omelets 
Garnished with herbs 
Eve's pudding bathing in custard
- temptingly -
Mushroom risotto
-a gourmet delight -
Served with green salad
plus chips and icecream!
A glass of white wine - Pinot Grigio
slightly chilled
- decadence -
Madness sets in - slowly
I imagine how happy...

No longer will l sin

Treat my temple like a bin

Shoving all and sundry in

So l will bear and grin

Take it on the chin

To be happy in my skin

Be healthy within

No more biscuits from the tin

Against the bulge l will win

Today l will begin 

To do...

Premium Member A Songbird's Diet
In
   my backyard
are songbirds
aplenty
I feed them
               raisins;
And
   sweet berries
but they like worms better
with spiders
             ...

Diet Coke
Sweet things don't always cloy.  
The rainbow comes and goes 
and lovely is the rose.  
But few drinks bring me joy 

and the taste I favor, 
that Splenda in the glass,
that dance of bubbly gas.  
Ahhh...Diet Coke; savour.

Premium Member By the Cheese Tray
It’s another sordid workplace affair
Organized by the dashing and flamboyant Pierre
There should be a warning to beware
Bad week to start any diet – o what despair
Millions of calories everywhere 
On one side a mountain of chocolate éclair
On the other a huge tray of Camembert
It was...

Premium Member Knowing I Am Killing Myself
I sit and I sit and I sit again,
Wondering why my neck hurts
And my body is losing her elasticity.
Eating brownies for fuel, knowing I am killing myself
Softly, and in a luxuriously relaxing way.

The brownies are gone, but I am not satisfied,
So I reach for the...
