I love sweets and treats and sodas and pop
I eat them up and don’t want to stop
They bulge my belly and give my teeth soft spots
But they taste so good they are hard to top.
Red sweets are good,
full of their dye
cinnamon bears, twizzlers, hot tamales, cherry pie.
Chocolate is best
creamy and rich,
but if you get hives
try not to itch.
Candies and sweets
Pie, cake, and treats
all of them tasty
but too many make you pasty.
Try real food instead,
and get out of your bed.
Get off of the couch
and go work off that pouch.
Walk, ride, or run,
soon you’ll find that it’s fun
you’ll work up a sweat
and get healthier yet!

Thanks for the encouragement, Jean. I’m working on it! I do love to write and wish I could devote more time to it. Maybe that’s why I’m on the computer at 5 something am on a workday! 🙂
