Melted Cheese

A lunch for me that’s bound to please Is one containing melted cheese, For on a bagel or some bread (The crusty type) or else instead… Inside a quesadilla shell Or anyplace to melt it well, I love its oozy stretchy form, Especially when it’s still warm. It could be cheddar, maybe Swiss Or mozzarella (that can’t miss) Or muenster, gouda, edam, jack To make a meal or just a snack. The salad lovers may protest, Yet pizza fans would pass the test, For life provides no guarantees Except when lunch has melted cheese.

A poem (and menu) after my own heart. (And you can hold the ham and the kosher pickle too. lol). Nice write, Ilene!

What a scrumptious yummy write, Ilene. Quite possibly my biggest foody frailty. I don’t care if it’s melted or straight off the block…. Cheese and me? Bestest buddies.

I love all kinds of cheeses, Ilene but at my age I have to eat them sparingly otherwise it's prunes (or some other motivator) to get the blockage moving! Sharp cheddar is a favorite, Wisconsin or English, a good French blue cheese or Italian Gorgonzola, Swiss (with holes) and Ementhaler – they're all favorites. a smoleu Gouda – all are favorites. You're quite the cheese gourmand! / Maurice
