CARBS and CAFFEINE
I like beef and potatoes,
chicken and pasta, too.
I've learned what foods that I can eat
to stay awake, or to sleep the night through.
Caffeine is a stimulant.
It really gets me wired.
I wish there was an ''off'' switch.
Can't stop though my body is tired.
I fade in a carbohydrate coma,
thanks to some good ol' mac' and cheese.
Just a bowlful, and I'd fall over
From a weather or a real light breeze.
Most of the time I am careful
of what and when I eat through the day,
but some foods are so very tempting
That it's hard to turn them away.
So no carbs for me in the morning ...
No caffeine for me after lunch.

I've learned what foods I can
eat when
I want to doze or when I need
a punch.
And here where I am living -
in the good ol' U.S. of A.,
I have more than my share of
good things.
I am so very blessed today.
