Premium Member Pagan Devotional For Mealtimes

Dear Lord and Lady:
I thank Thee for the gifts of life;
I thank Thee for the gifts of death.
May I be ever mindful
Of the souls who share
My coursing blood, my freshening breath.

Holiday Mealtimes

Siblant esses slyly sneaking
doubling your portion size
turning singular to plural
as you order beer and pies
so don't become at every meal
fat, like a snake that ate a wagon wheel

Premium Member In This Day of Widespread Obesity - the Tale of Tom

In this day of widespread obesity
THE TALE OF TOM

no!
but why?
he was kind
and so thoughtful
didn’t strut around
like so many I know
all the little ones loved him
i must say    though    he was so fat
he should have watched himself at mealtimes
just see how he overlaps the platter

It’s magic at mealtimes the way she transforms;
the back legs defy all the physical norms.
She springs into action with vertical leaps;
there must be some kangaroo in there down deep.

She bounces like pogos have replaced her feet;
she’s getting that nose up to six feet or more.
A helium balloon can hardly compete;
I’m telling you, man, this pup really can soar!

Can't get to sleep
    Wake up too late
  Afternoon snooze
    Mealtimes confused

  Yet when I get up early
    All day I'm surly
  Overeat, stuff my face
    I'm in a bad place...  

  What? You're jealous of me
    'Cos I sleep 'til 9:33
  And at breakfast I tarry
    Over waffles with blueberries

  Well then! Life's not so bad after all 
    ~ Didn't realize I was having a ball
