James Proclaims!

‘Twas the day after Christmas and all through the house,
Not a calorie was burning, no-one would espouse,
Any kind of activity, except watching telly,
For more had been consumed than a bowl full of jelly

And just before resolutions of New Year we make,
(The ones that we keep for days and then break),
The post Christmas fallout increases their need,
As on festive treats we continue to feed

On chocolates, on peanuts, on stollen we nibble,
On whiskey, on lager, on mulled wine we tipple,
From the top of the fridge to the cupboard so tall,
We stashed away, stashed away stashed away all

But now is the time to consume all this fare,
Without second thought, or even a care,
And as bellies bulge, and trousers get tight,
Have a great Boxing Day and a better Boxing Night!
