Cheese Dip Slip

Cheese dip slip The cheddar and gouda were ready, my hand with the knife very steady The party was moments away and I had to be quick The chips and hors d’oeuvres were all plated, but still I was far from elated The cheeses I needed to cut were quite hard and so thick When slicing the big plate of cheeses, I felt now some oncoming sneezes And holding them back didn’t work, they came out with a rip I reached very quick for a tissue, but that didn’t help out the issue When snot landed square in the bowl holding velveeta dip Now needless to say I was worried, I cut up the cheese and I hurried To scrape off the stuff on the dip now a bright shade of green My big metal spoon was now stirring, the tools on my mixer were purring And what I was left with now facing, an olive green sheen My mind started rapidly turning, the thoughts that I had wildly churning When I had a thought, like a light bulb the idea lit Now I am to blame for this solely, I offered, “it’s fresh guacamole” Though I didn’t eat it the party was now a big hit ** Velveeta is a processed cheese food melted for cheese dip. 11/16/18 Written for : The Write A Poem About Cheese Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Barry Stebbings
