The physical world consumes our minds
Leaving little space for the divine
We forget the beauty in the stars
And how a universe in us, is ours

In a land far away and long ago
There lived two creatures,
You don't yet know

Their ways were different, and so their balance.
One called Gluttony, the other Temperance.

Gluttony loved to feast all day
On all kinds of foods and in every way
From sugary sweets to savory meats
He ate and ate, never missed a beat

Temperance, on the other hand
Was quite restrained, you understand
She ate what she needed, nothing more
For her, moderation was the score

Gluttony scoffed at Temperance's ways
"You're missing out on all the tasty arrays!"
But Temperance calmly replied,
"I eat what I need, and so I abide."

Gluttony grew larger day by day
His love of food led him astray
He couldn't move, couldn't even run
His excess had finally begun.

Temperance remained healthy and strong
She knew that balance was never wrong.

She exercised and ate in moderation
A true model of self-restraint in her nation.

So let this tale be a lesson to all
Of the dangers of gluttony's call
Follow in Temperance's steps, my friend
And a healthy life you will extend.

In our childhood, food was an imaginative delight,
Filled with stories and magical sight,
Every meal was a feast for the senses,
With flavors and colors that left no defenses.

We feasted on stories of enchanted lands,
And ate food that was cooked by fairy hands,
Our imagination soared with every bite,
As we savored every moment of our delight.

But as we grew up, things changed fast,
Our focus shifted, and our innocence passed,
Materialism took over, and physicality ruled,
As we chased after things, that left us fooled.

Food became a commodity, a means to an end,
Something to be consumed, and not to befriend,
We forgot the magic, the joy, and the thrill,
And our taste buds lost their power to thrill.

Gone were the stories, the wonder, and the awe,
As we gobbled down food, without any pause,
But somewhere inside, a spark still burned bright,
A longing for something that felt just right.

So let us go back, to our childhood days,
And savor the food, in imaginative ways,
Let us reclaim the magic, the joy, and the thrill,
And let our taste buds, once again, feel.

For food is more than just a physical thing,
It's a reminder of the joy, that childhood can bring.

Let our meals be a feast, that is truly transformative.
Let us embrace the spiritual, and the imaginative
