Wine And Dine O'clock comical poem 632 by Angela' Lansbury

Morning At Ate O'clock

I'm always in the mood for food

It's necessary and does you good

My husband's joke on wine o clock

Started a poem I can't stop

 I rise early often at six

To eat my morning wake-a-bix

It's time for water, not yet wine

Seven's my first brekoffee time

But then at eight it's eight a break

You have to wait

And weight yourself

 No-eating break for losing weight

I kick the kilo readout with incredulous sorrow

And note in my diary, diet -  tomorrow

Eight's known in dialect as eat-a clock

But Americans call it wheat o'clock

You might snack on your rice crispies

Like healthy vegan vegetime with beans and peas

After you've had your yog-a clock

You could set off for your jog a clock

For some lunch time is sandwich time

Ladies who lunch, schoolchildren dine

From fruit o'lock to soup o'clock

At twelve a buffet delve o'clock

Afternoon At Tea O'clock

Already hungry three o'clock?

Then have an early tea--clock

Stricly bee time, not a sea time

Strictly vegan, milk-free, mint and pea time

There's one event no child will knock

It's chocolate birthday cake o'clock

You might be wondering why, dear cock

They do not call it higher clock

Tea'time's replaced by coffee-clock

I'd rather have cakes choc-a block

Instead pf shopping round the block

Cook banoffee and toffee-clock

In Scotland where bodies are mighty

They have a huge five o clock High-tea

Plan snacking on some sweet nuts and dates 

A nice time with riectime on dinner  plates

Evening Around Wine O'Clock

At six it's aperitif-a clock

Andcock a clock for cocktails

Instead of food hich is hearty

In England there's a food-free sherry party

At eight bubbly at Champagne-o'clock

Before the piled dinner plate o'clock

Theres the meet and greet o'clock

Then the all you can eat o'clock

The Spaniards all eat late o-clock

They dine at nine for wino clock

But then again there's ten a clock

For cok au vin and parties for hen o'clock 

At eleven washing up o clock

Also known as clear up and clear off a clock

Now restaurant ban smoke a clock

Wwe used to have a late night coco clock

At midnigh there's no need to stop

Finally there's midnight snack oclock

And then we go to sleep to dream

Of all the food we've ever seen.

The body's a ong food and water pipe

Put it in and let it churcn around at night

In the morning the body can hail and rain

Make room for filling up again

That's why I've different times on clocks

And take away bags in my socks..

If alllergleis don't do you harm

Wake up for food with your phone's food alarm

A mobile's phone's main use I feel

Until those hunger pains get rea

You did not eat for hours - what shock!

Make sure you do not miss a meal

Make sure your phone has not been locked

But wakes each hour for food o'clock..
