Ode to my once slim waist
øḋε τø ṃÿ øṉсε ṡlïṃ ώαïṡτ
Where are you my long lost friend?
My true partner through many bends
My slim fit jeans miss you dearly
So do many of my lovely kurtis
I should not have taken you for granted
Please know that I have since repented
Chocolate, fries, butter broke our marriage
You left me and I expanded, it’s tragic
I am a changed girl now, I swear my friend
Fatty food does not charm, I’ve made amends
Must our love be so shallow and transient?
Please forgive me, let’s once more be friends
Together we made quite an impression on men
Drinks spilled, temperatures rose, all eyes froze when
You and I swayed into a room, we did not have to try
To use wit, work hard for impact, Oh now I could cry
I know I did not treat you with love and care
So you left me for more youthful figures
But they are self absorbed and shallow
Come back my love, I’ve since mellowed
Together we shall flirt, we’ll do it with flair
Dance, exercise and I’ll treat you with care
You are the love of my life, you are my muse
See, I wrote you an ode, so do not refuse

That's amazing!!! Haven't ever heard/thought of such an approach to slimming & weight loss....

Deep sigh! Not yet!
*sob sob* Reminds me of my lost slim waist!
*Giving you a comfort hug* : There there!
DITTO! Though I don't know about breaking off my engagement with chocolates n fried stuff...
I know, that is a long standing relationship, while the waist turned unfaithful
lol can u call back mine too
Join me in calling it, and the other fickle slim waists too
Hahaha, Count me in the lost waist club. However the waist is not wasted.
Loved it.
This is fun, waist and waisted!
<>... hehehe
Hmnn... in between the was supposed to be "Puts on a lungi and webbed, sleeveless banian and goes *whiiiiiiiiistle*"
Oye Hoye, and sadke jaavan on that appreciative whistle
LOL! love it!
Thanks MayG
ohh ya slim fit jeans , please come back to ritu and while youre at it could you pull in the low rise levi's too
LOL anything you say dear!
*serious look*
Please come back to Ritu O'kamar most dear
she wont ever eat junk have no fear
but even if you dont come back,it aint a prob
coz Ritu seems to have forgotten that she is still a heartthrob
((((hugs)))))
Thanks Indyeah!
amen!
Yeah!
oh man!! only you cud write a poem on ur waist ritu!!! good stuff, as always!! you had me smiling all thru!
Thank you Mandira
oh wow! I knw no body else who could come up with a post like this...loved it....and was finishing a plate of chocolate ice cream with choco chip that I have been dying to eat...trying hopelessly not to think of my (disappearing) waist!
Choco Chip!!! Drool! Dont tell the waist but I love it
Ritu, do you want a chorus? I need to find mine too. First I had delivery as an excuse but now my daughter is 5 and my slim waist is gumshuda
Join in, I think Monika, Shail you n I and a lot of others would love to sing this one together
Lol! I hope she reciprocates
Me too, sigh!!!
Why do you pine for an inconsistent and unreliable love? Stick to the fat: it'll never desert you!
Cheers,
Quirky Indian
You have a point Quirky
He he he! That was lovely! One suggestion: Change the title, its a dead give-away
Ohkay! What do you think I should name it?
@Indy- That was an awesome sequel
@Quirky- ROFL at your comment,and I totally agree!
Wait Ritu, make no haste!
On one hand we have ice creams and choco chips!
On the other just a tiny little itty bitty waist?
I'd wave a cheerful goodbye to slender hips
And apply myself to enjoying yummy, rich buttery taste
(I know you said waist not hips but I was trying to rhyme!)
Absolutely hilarious
LOLzzzzzzzz
real fun reading it!!! Could connect with most of that 
Now to everybody I am kid#2
Dear waist please come back to mom
Even though she eats junk for fun
Chocolates and all will not matter anymore
If you return to her, Im sure.
Hehehehe Kiddo, you're supposed to tell me to put on shoes and go out walking and not join the poets society
A Waist-ed Effort
...LOL
Na rey! Everything is susceptible to flattery (or so I hope)
