It's time for the perfect diet,
I know one but do keep it quiet -
Eat veggies and fish
For every dish
You have to be frantic to try it.

It's time for the perfect diet
maybe millions will try it.
We'll appear on tv
We'll send you some free
When you're hooked, we hope you will buy it.

My new book is all about Narbs
They're extra-terrestrial

My new book is all about Narbs
They're extra-terrestrial
And highly cholesteral
Out of this world, they are! (s)

Oh pity the day I went dieting

Oh pity the day I went dieting
It really was most disquieting.
McDonald's laid off
Almost half their staff (That rhymes in Britain, doesn't it?? Smile )
Most of whom now are rioting.

My belly's begun to rumble
So off to the fridge I will stumble
(That's icebox to you
But our word will do)
There's some leftover nice rhubarb crumble

Terribly sorry folks, I actually made one up and thought I had sent it; it was all about the angst and stress occasioned by the weighty responsibility of embarking on a new lim:

An onerous responsibility
To start a new poem with agility

Just any old thing would be fine.

An onerous responsibility
To start a new poem with agility.
On cheaters or skeeters
Rhymed in set meters
And within the bounds of civility.

Brevity is the soul of wit
And I don't disagree a bit
Why waffle for hours
Till your audience cowers

Why waffle for hours
Till your audience cowers
When you can be brief and then sit.

I stood up to say a few words
About the mess caused by birds
My washing is stained
Again and again

I'm no good at making a speech
And that's why we take one line each
(Or sometimes some more
By those who would bore)

(Or sometimes some more
By those who would bore)
And whose grasp is not as long as their reach.

Those lines don't even scan!
