Ode To a Bagel With Cream Cheese

O delicacy born of some cow's milk and dough when toasted for breakfast how I love you so Whether topped with onions or sesame seeds or nothing at all you fill all my needs With texture from Heaven the crunch and the cream Mere toast cannot rival this flavorful dream Compared to your shapely and sensuous curves I'd never look twice at a tray of hors d'oeuvres You've stolen my heart by now you must know O bagel with cream cheese how I love you so © Mike Wise 6-5-23

Many thanks Ilene! I just recently rediscovered this delicacy. Hadn't had it in a long time! :)
