In Praise of Cheeses

At breakfast time, don’t give me eggs Or pancakes or French toast; Some coffee and a cheese-topped bagel Is what I like most. Gouda, Muenster, Edam, Swiss, American or Brie; Jarlsberg, Asiago, Jack – They all work fine for me. I’m not a fan of smelly ones, And blue cheese I despise; I guess I’m more pedestrian And not so worldly-wise. But still, I’d like to offer praise To every type that pleases; The world would be a sadder place If it did not have cheeses.
