Gorp ... Eat

Today’s word is “gorp” .... a mixture of nuts, raisins, dried fruits, seeds, or the like eaten as a high-energy snack, as by hikers and climbers. (Dictionary.com)

Eat

So many snacks!

And not much to do.

Think I’ll just sit here,

And eat up a few.

Where should I start,

With donuts and cake?

With gorp and a milkshake?

Or is that a mistake?

A handful of chocolate?

Some marshmallow creme?

Graham crackers and frosting?

That sounds like a dream.

But of course there’s a cost,

It comes in ounces and pounds,

And I don’t want them for sure,

So I’ll just turn around.
