In younger days we would watch our figure Now hear behind the back people snicker Now through many years Christmas treats and cheers Behinds not in line, those bellies bigger! I’ll make Chocolate pie resolution Along with Pecan pie restitution When our congress acquits Stupid party line splits That’s when this old sort admits, protrusion! Once old fat cell was triggered Being in behinds he snickered In belly overlap In lassie and old chap Got them just the way he figured! For and in honor of Carolyn Devonshire And Contest
