Crackers and Cheese

Adventure is the beckon call
On land and on the seas
But nothing stands so strong and tall
Against crackers and cheese

I climbed the highest mountain range
Sometimes on hands and knees
The things that kept me seeking change
Were crackers and the cheese

Once on high seas tossed and thrown
And praying dear Lord please
The crew on deck began to moan
Without crackers and cheese

And so I tell you wanting rhyme
A parable to please
Through troubles you can still take time
To chew crackers and cheese

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/3/2022 3:53:00 PM maybe I will do what I want anyway. Looking at yours again, I can see you used great imagination and not something that is an everyday activity.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/3/2022 3:52:00 PM well, what you said below. I got an idea for this contest but then i went and reread her rules and my idea flew out the window. She wants the food related to one everyday activity. (not what I had been thinking of doing) DANG Login to Reply

Michelle Faulkner Date: 5/1/2022 6:13:00 PM Great job, Andy, crackers and cheese are one of my favorite snacks (and sometimes dinner!) This is very cleverly done as well~ Login to Reply Andy Chunn Date: 5/1/2022 7:39:00 PM Thank you Michelle....who doesn't enjoy crackers and cheese. I appreciate your time in reading my poem.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/1/2022 12:58:00 PM wow, you did GREAT with this food merger theme. I really want to do it, but I am so clueless right now. Hopefully I can be inspired by how you did your poem to think something up.
