Cottage Cheese

I've just realized
cottage cheese
is not cheese.
I'm surprised!

I shouldn't be shocked
but, you see,
it's really just
a curd to me!

Oh, wow, what a great word play in this one. It took me a second to get that. I really like this kind of little poem. When I was young, I hated cottage cheese, but then I learned to dip crackers in it, so now it's one of my "go to" lunches.

Thanks, Deb, although I can’t claim full credit. I saw the pun on a sign somewhere and just put it in poetic form. Glad you liked it. J
