Eight line poem

TOPIC

WRITE A GRACEFUL POEM.

I wished I had a graceful figure,
instead I find I’m getting bigger!
I really ought to exercise,
Then I wouldn’t have these chunky thighs.

I wish I was a swan, serene and graceful on the lake.
Or a ballet dancer, and could dance upon my toesies.
But it’s sad to say I simply don’t have what it takes.
I’m just a thorn between the roses.
