Poemattic: Poetry and Art for the Soul

I tried shaping up the other day

I stretched and stretched

and flipped and flopped

to get rid of the muffin top.

After three hours of sweat and tears

I convinced myself

I could not keep up

because of all my years.

So instead I went to my drawing pad.

Painting is what makes me glad;

no point in being sad

As you can see I did shape up after all.
