Not Without Cheese

Some like it melted
   Some eat it raw
Put it on a burger
   But not on cole slaw

It's' great with noodles
   especially macaroni
Some even dare to
   eat it with baloney

Rodents seem to crave it
   Chipmunks, rats and mice
Kittens and cats like it too
   With mice it goes nice

And just picture a pizza  
   without any cheese
All topping, sans bottom
   ~ No thank you, please!

Oh, you could have written the whole thing about how mice love cheese, and called it 'Of Mice and Cheese!' But now all I can think is what's the point of cheese-less pizza?

No different than the point of soy-hamburgers, I suppose...

This one was fun, lighthearted and almost crossed a line with pizza with no cheese thing. :) Nicely done my friend. Best of luck in the contest.

As long as the poem didn't cross Line Gauthier. That's a "Line" I never want to cross. She's a wonderful woman...Thank you for the support, my friend. ~ Gershon
