Shedding Light - Step 8

To My Children,

You have seen me turn from the sow

Into somewhat of a wow

Sometimes you have to forego the taste

For the sake of your waist

I wasn’t taught this when I was young

But I want to pass this along

Whatever you eat

Goes to your seat

It’s harder to lose when you’re old

So do what you are told

Eat your veggies for your well being

And a better body you’ll be seeing

Vegetables for taste

Won’t go to your waist

Eat better for life

And you’ll find a fine wife

She’ll appreciate your body

And think you’re a hottie

Exercise every day

There’s no better way

To be good to YOU

You’ll look good on the outside

And feel good on the inside

You’ll thank me later

When you pass on the tater

You’ll look good on the beach

As you snack on a peach

And the girls eye your physique

And you pass their critique

You’ll be hugging your mama

As you float in the karma

Of the new love you found

Cause your mama told you not to be so round!

With Love From Your MOM!
