Life’s been good
Treating me well
So good, in fact,
That I’ve started to swell
Sitting all day
On a comfortable chair
And the rest of the time
Sleeping away
No walks, no rides
No physical exercise
Just sitting and eating
Burgers and fries
And so, my lovelies
I’ve joined the gym
To get in some fitness
And to stay trim
It’s been a week
And the pain, oh the pain!
I can hear my muscles cry
Under the strain
Dormant muscles
That have been sleeping for years
Are being forced to work now
Amid protein shakes and tears
And so I’m hobbling around
Praying that this is worth it
And my husband’s hoping
That I don’t quit!
‘Coz I took the full membership you see,
Which is quite a hefty fee 😉
