Can't find it!
Can't find where it is
among turkey slices
the
herbs and spices,
biscuits for cheese
got the Christmas
disease
Of buying too much!
Some cheese
that
is Dutch.
Pickle and cream -
a dieters' dream...
Cakes and ham,
fruit shakes and
red alcoholic jam!
(In here it's so crammed)
Brandy snaps
Among the scraps;
a packet of wraps.
Bubble and squeak
enough for week
upon week!
Prosecco and beer -
for Christmas cheer!
Stuffed waistlines
sprouts on the vine
blush coloured wine.
Same every year
lettuce, pickle, mince pies
that reaches the sky!
Cold meats and
too many sweets -
so much to eat!
What about breakfast
double pack bacon
and a dozen eggs
but still can’t find
The stuff
I use for my head!
The fridge is stacked
some food rich and yucky;
But aren't we lucky?
Things in packs
but at last!
I find with all the snacks
At the back of the fridge
my
hair wax....
