temptation that i oh so love
with delicious taste and texture
filling all the gaps and large holes
making life good so much better
my birthday suit needs altering
temptation that i oh so love
is stacking on the pounds by pounds
my clothes ill fitting and too tight
sugar addiction is quite strong
like nicotine and alcohol
temptation that i oh so love
could ruin my health in the future
so i will ration my sweet love
to one per week and take with tea
look forward to that special treat
temptation that i oh so love
ack. so true. i love key lime pie...but i loves me too much...i think many of us have a love hate relationship with eating/our body...i am holding off on sweets for now...working out more...trimming up a bit...
ReplyDeletephotos before and after...yes!
DeleteOh dear, I used to have a fast metabolism and could eat anything I liked, but now (approaching 40..shh) I find cake becoming my body and I'm going to have to be a bit more disciplined.
ReplyDeleteLuckily I don't have a heavy duty sweet tooth but I know plenty of people who do. But still could use my birthday suit being taken in a bit too...oh I wish that would work!
ReplyDeleteI can be quite resilient to that sweet craves.. But salted nuts are quite a different thing. You worked the refrain in so well in the quatern
ReplyDeleteSalty nuts harden the heart!
DeleteDon't yield to temptation always :-p
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I can relate to this all too well. I loved the repetition of "temptation that I oh so love" as it reinforced the repetitive nature of temptation.
ReplyDeleteah true..the temptation of sweets... it's good to find such a once a week compromise, make it something special... def. healthier...
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of taking my birthday suit to the tailor. The tailor may be less than impressed though.
ReplyDeleteo dear, not again
Deletefishing for more compliments
vanity,thy name is Cosmo
The secret with temptation is to give into it and it changes to regret. And we can always rationalise regret. (Written with a cold beer in the gazebo in the front yard. I shouldn't have but it was hot.)
ReplyDeleteWhy not...it's the long weekend!
ReplyDeleteI have been succumbing to my sweet temptation for months so I attempted a cold turkey withdrawal but it was just too painful so am now adopting a controlled temptation situation ...strictly only once a week.
