Diet to Die For

A married couple, very old,
Stayed very healthy, mainly due
To her keeping a quite firm hold
On a strict diet for the two.
But there was a car accident,
And both were killed quite suddenly.
Off to heaven both of them went,
Where everything there was free.
How much or whatever they ate
Mattered not, now that they were dead.
No more diet to him was great,
And he turned to his wife and said.

"If you weren't so healthy go go,"
"We coulda been here years ago."
