Blue Cheese and Old Pickles

Blue cheese and old pickles -
yukkety yuk.
Take them away from my face.

Blue cheese is so stinky.
Also its taste
even with wine I can’t chase.

If the pickles are dill,
I do not care
if they are new ones or old.

I take pickles sweet or
not one at all.
Dill is no better than mold!

Quoth Theraven Date: 3/25/2025 4:13:00 PM Hi Andrea, Love it, "Blue cheese and old pickles - yukkety yuk." So many would agree with that. Pickles are an acquired taste, dislike dill, like bread & butters. No goat cheese for me, thanks. Many love Ranch over Blue, and Italian over Russian. Anyway, thanks for the laughs in a poem called "Blue Cheese and Old Pickles". -Richard Login to Reply

CayCay Jennings Date: 3/20/2025 8:03:00 AM I love dill, and as a child spit out sweet as lady like as I could. I loved the whimsical time I just shared with you. So much to write for yet a whimsy one grabbed you just for fun - I like that. Login to Reply

Miranda Hawley Date: 3/18/2025 6:01:00 PM We do NOT have agreement about dill pickles. As far as blue cheese it is far better as a dressing than it is not in a dressing. Anyways thanks for writing something fun. Login to Reply Andrea Dietrich Date: 3/18/2025 8:40:00 PM Ha. I don't even like sweet pickles very much. Don't see the sense in pickles at all. I'm glad you at least thought it was funny.

Linda Alice Fowler Date: 3/18/2025 2:46:00 PM LOL Andrea. Your last line says it all for me. :) Login to Reply Linda Alice Fowler Date: 3/19/2025 6:29:00 AM I am not a fan of anything pickled. I tasted a non-brined pickle once and was still not impressed. And mold? Well, it worked for penicillin. LOL Andrea Dietrich Date: 3/18/2025 8:39:00 PM Dill pickles suck. Olives too. I don't get what people see in stuff like that!

Lin Lane Date: 3/18/2025 2:42:00 PM Andrea, your statement, "writing metaphorically about them? Ummm, no idea . . ." are the funniest words I have ever seen written by you. And now that I've read all of your lines, I'm still laughing at the end. Great humor! Login to Reply Andrea Dietrich Date: 3/18/2025 8:38:00 PM Thanks, Lin. Unfortunately I had failed to notice his stipulation on metaphor writing. But hopefully I will get some laughs from my poem.
