Garden of Eatin’ Poem

I mustn’t eat this, and I mustn’t eat that,

It’s full of cholesterol, and dangerously fat.

Lay off the eggs and give up the cream.

I shouldn’t eat pork - bad for my spleen.

No oils or fats - and so on and on,

Well, I’m 93 now and not too far gone !

I eat what I like - if I can buy it;

The fatter the better - I’d like to try it !

Give me a good fatty prime rib roast

And gravy fried eggs on hot buttered toast.

Doc says, “Don’t !” but I’m having a ball ..

Eating what’s full of cholesterol ! !
