Blue Cheese

Blue cheese doesn't sound good to me
Food should never be blue!
Orange and red and green are okay
To mention to you just a few!

A man's suit should never be pink
It gives off a certain vibe!
It portrays a kind of effeminate touch
A thing you might want to hide!

You be the judge, what about ice cream?
Would you order a flavor called cow?
Probably not, but you never know
Could be the next craze after sow!

One more thing then I really must go
How about purple pieces of fudge?
Not your thing? Doesn't turn your crank?
Just give your funny bone a nudge!

Why are we bound by customs and norms?
Why can't we step out of the box?
Do our own thing like wearing a tutu
With polka dot green and pink socks!

Blue cheese isn't that bad. The Italians have a similar cheese they call Gorgonzola. You have a marvelously humorous write with great descriptiveness and rhyming.

I've heard that Gorgonzola is equally disgusting in appearance! I'll stick to Velveeta! LOL Thanks again, Robert

Maybe blue cheese come from a sad cow... you know Jack, we shouldn't discriminate on the basis of sex, race, religion, or emotion... Terry (nice funny poem)

Strange eh! I've never actually tasted blue cheese but the look of it is just so disgusting! Checked it and here's what I found... "The main thing that makes blue cheese blue is mold"!!! That's it for me! LOL
