+*+*+

My flapping arms are jiggling,
As I'm running here in place;
Both 'chests' are bobbing up and down,
Slapping me in face!

I'm reaching way up high,
I'm bending way down low;
I bump and grind, my big behind,
Fat shaking as I go!

I'm stretching to the left,
I'm stretching to the right;
I'm dyin', as I'm suckin' in,
My tummy nice 'n tight!

Smiles hide the grimaces;
I show not clench of teeth.
I feel as though I'm dyin'
As make list of bequeath.

Sweat is dripping from my brow,
My clothes are soaking wet,
But I keep on smiling
~ Won't let them see me fret!

+*+*+


Note:  Just poetry folks!

My daughter said, "Mom, you're not really going to post that poem, are you?!?"

--I said, "Sure! Why not? Then everyone will finally know what I look like!"  lol

just sing along with suthern *G*

smile though your arms are achin'
smile though muscles are quakin'
when there are pounds to be shed
wish you're dead

but smile
through agonizing pain
smile as if you're insane
life may not be so worthwhile

but you SMILE!!

Sorry, lady... I couldn't help but think that a smile wouldn't be on my face under such circumstances... I'd be gritting my teeth... and screaming if I found a breath! LOL
Enjoyed much! *S*

Yera Darlin'! Did you know that! I sang your lyrics to that song and I literally broke into gales of laughter! You are the kind of medicine that doctors should always prescribe for their patients!

Now this was not only adorable but so true!  What a cute way to meet a challenge, and you sure did it - hope you are not pooped

I don't want to know where I am going, it will ruin my journey.

I'm gettin' sick and tired,
That's all ya hear,
'bout hikin, and bikin,
and tonin' up your rear,
What's happened to the days
Of the "hips and curves?"
All this talk about fitness
Is gettin' on my nerves
We'll turn your bedroom
Into a gym
When we come out
We'll be slim and trim!

Remember: "The wider the hip...the tighter the grip!!!!"

Yanno sweets...being the nice considerate guy I am....I'll be more than happy to "bounce your chest up and down" for ya and you won't have to make such a self sacrifice of all that running and sweating etc.....In fact, this entire week, I'm offering free breast exams and mustache rides, for a limited time only!!!!

Working out is a necessary evil! I prefer cycling, hiking, swimming etc. but the gym works muscle groups I didn't even know I had!

Dear Toe certainly adds some spice to Passions! Knowing him as I do, he'd readily offer to take my "chests for a walk in the park each day!

If you would like some more "chest"--I'll share some from the overflow of my full cups!

That's what being a friend is all about! Those who care, share!
