I Love To Hear the Bacon Sing

I love to hear the bacon sing, Its wafting essence meant to bring The slumbered family from their lair With hopes of sampling morning fare. Like Siren’s song or Venus’ face They’re drawn to bacon’s fond embrace. Now add the scent of waffles warm, The maple syrup brings the swarm! Eggs to order, short stacks brown Biscuits, OJ, rolls renowned, It never fails a smile to bring, I love to hear the bacon sing!
