A Break from Introspection

Day 14

Down 15.8 pounds!

Ode to Egg Beaters

Oh, artificial one how much do I crave thee

On these days when high protein I must eat.

So apologize must I, for these thirty years past

I mocked thee. Your forgiveness I do entreat.

The loveliest of canvases you are, when for

Lunch or supper omelets I long to make.

And thanks to the measurement equivalent

You will I employ should I decide to bake.

Fat and cholesterol you have naught

And carbohydrates, why you have  just a trace.

Logic questions who would complain when all 

But One percent of you is that which you replace.

So stand tall beside the milk within my fridge.

Take your place in my new lifestyle with pride.

I admit how wrong in youth I once was,

Eat my crow, and apologize for being snide.

Hope you enjoyed tonight's whimsy!
