My talented singer/songwriter friend Christine Anfossie has just sent me the musical version of a poem I published earlier on my blog. Here, again, is that poem and below is her musical rendition! Love it.
Chocolate
You’re being good and I am not.
I broke my diet and got caught.
I’d have resisted if I could,
but chocolate cake just looked so good.
I bought a piece, not a whole cake.
I thought a meal of it I’d make.
But now you feel you must rebut
my obvious need for chocolate.
Will you soon go? It’s getting late,
and there’s this chocolate on my plate.
And though I know it’s impolite,
the chances that I’ll share are slight.
Of your smug lecture I’ve had enough
and now it’s my turn to be tough.
If you must fall from your high throne
and dine on cake, go buy your own!

That’s wonderful! I have to admit that I save 100 calories each day for something chocolate (dipped bananas, dipped strawberries, 1 square of dark chocolate, etc. Somehow that usually helps with the cravings!

I know — but I’m really trying — as often as not those 100 calories turn into 200, and sometimes even 300!

Amazing! My musician brother told me he’d do the same for me, but it never worked out.
