Plating Up
The venues that constantly dismay
Are the 'all-you-can-eat' buffets.
Our resolve dissipates
As we pile up our plates
And what goes in, invariably stays.

Painfully true.

All goes to show that one may not be hungry but still revel in the passion of food gorging!

Always a delight to read a witty limerick!
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteStays indeed...and how!
ReplyDeleteOof. Yes. I'm much better about controlling myself at a buffet place than I was in my 20's but I still probably eat more than I should.
ReplyDeleteHa, that is why I stopped going to buffets. Wanting to eat enough to 'get one's money's worth' is NOT a healthy thing.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds right.
ReplyDeletePerfectly penned. So nice to see you, Cosmo.
ReplyDeleteMade me smile - clever write!
ReplyDeleteHa ha, too true.
ReplyDeleteAnother smile off the Serviette.
ReplyDeleteThanks

How true this is if you can't exercise as much as you used to (like me). Now my trousers don't fit!
ReplyDeleteSo true - but I do so love a buffet...

It stays unless we walk--and walk and walk--it off!
