home again
a blanket of snow
turns to slush

Bugger me! My weight has increased anew
from three days and nights in warm Torbay
with breakfast served and meals out, 'tis true:
a Christmas present short break from DK
And though each day began with walking pups
down to Oddicombe where the sand is red
I had my fill of take-away and chips
and nuts to nibble; marmalade to spread.
But when I visit Slimming World today
and spread my girth upon the silver scales
the lady there will purse her lips and say
"This meeting group is full of glut'nous whales."
But jiu-jitsu classes start again, tomorrow
my weight will drop once more, and end this sorrow.
