Too Late For Lunch ~ Too Early For Dinner!

Too late for lunch, too early for dinner

If I eat now, I’ll get fatter, not thinner

But hunger has struck like the clock at three

As I gaze in the fridge, longingly…

There’s juice and milk, pickles and butter

But nothing that makes my heart flutter.

So down one shelf I peek some more

Some yogurt, an apple, oh what a bore!

Then one shelf below, I start to shake!

A leftover piece of creamy cheesecake!

I try to ignore it with all my might

But cheesecake is a true delight…

Maybe just a sliver will suffice

Carefully I cut a super thin slice

Placed on its side the little piece sat

It looked amazing, (though a little flat),

My fork cut through with silky ease

My taste buds ready for my cake of cheese…

I closed my eyes; it was so smooth

Maybe being fat was a worthy move?

The creamy sweetness on my lips;

The calories heading for my hips ~

I savored each bite with blissful pleasure.

A piece of heaven, a worthy treasure~

So when it’s too late for lunch, too early for dinner

And you’re in search of a treat that’s really a winner

Don’t feel guilty, choose your snack with flair

There’ll be plenty time later to hit the stairs!
