The Question of Treats

My sister and I 
disagree about treats.
I’m always ready
to have something yummy,

But she says
I shouldn’t be 
bossed by
my tummy.

“How,” I inquire, “can you
turn down free food?”
She snorts and says sometimes
she’s not in the mood. 

She’s older than me
So maybe she’s smarter…
But come on, turn down crunchies?!?
That’s just a non-starter.
