Bagel Poems - Poems about Bagel

Bagel Day

Hooray! Hooray! It’s Bagel Day!
Or so I’ve heard it said,
So substitute a bagel
For some ordinary bread.

Since many so-called “bagels”
Don’t have what it really takes
To be authentic, you may find
You’ve scarfed down lots of fakes.

Do not be fooled by circled dough
Around a center hole.
They must be dense and chewy
Like New York ones – that’s the goal.

Now

Ode To a Bagel With Cream Cheese

O delicacy born of
some cow's milk and dough
when toasted for breakfast
how I love you so

Whether topped with onions
or sesame seeds
or nothing at all
you fill all my needs

With texture from Heaven
the crunch and the cream
Mere toast cannot rival
this flavorful dream

Compared to your shapely
and sensuous curves
I'd never look twice
at a tray of hors d'oeuvres

You've stolen my heart
by

The Discovery of the Bagel

Whoever came up with the bagel
  was a right-smart clever fellow
His brainstorm surely ranks up there
  with taste treats like pudding and jello

For I'd never put toppings on pudding
  like lox, tomatoes or cream cheese
And who would think of serving jello
  with an assortment of delicacies

So, a doff of the cap

A Bagel With Cream Cheese

Treated myself to a begal with cream cheese
The thrill of this treat brought me down to my knees
Five times a day
Like an ass I bray
Is five times too much will I fit my dungarees

Our Bagel Flamed Out

Here's a tale of a white Chevy Corvair, I car I'll never forget
   Repossessed from a gypsy, I'd be willing to bet...

On a cold, snowy winter night, February 1968
   This 'bagel' was to drive the gang and me on the interstate
From Chicago, IL to Racine, WI, a basketball game there to

Lonely Bagel

Lonely bagel
Loneliness bagel
The bagel of loneliness

Togetherness bagel
The bagel of being together
Bagel of belonging

Doylestown Pennsylvania Your Morning Bagel

YOUR MORNING BAGEL Doylestown PA
Consider this, as buds break out on trees
not yet a leaf, the sight that no one sees
as walking through the borough mesmerized
past ancient mansions seen, not realized.

Through early morning air, our sence of smell
arouses to a bagels morning bell;
it tells us to awake, this is a day
we gain another try to

Bagel

A bagel sounding foreign underwhelmingly impresses.
The thought of something different only bores.
Until you take the bite into this tasty composition
and everything you want in bagels yours.

The sour flavour fills your mouth
to sweetness for the tongue.
Saliva churning out in pulp
to leave your mouth as mung.

A basted bagel bright in shine
to make you feel complete.
To wash it

Toast Me a Bagel

Toast me a bagel, please.

I've a load of laundry in the wash,
  fed the birds and squirrels
  watered the garden squash
  and now must sweep the floors.

Had my coffee early on
  but now my stomach grumbles and burns,
  in the middle of my morning yawn
  growling for something more

Bagel On the Run

bagels and cream cheese
the best breakfast on the run
for work and pleasure

A Hillbilly Eats His First Bagel

By Elton Camp

Old Bubba had spent his life in the hills
Plain food and drink from whiskey stills

So to the big city he decided he’d go
For about other things he’d like to know

He spent the night at the local YMCA
For breakfast, to a café the next day

Soon, Bubba had a bagel on his plate
Because, on the

Coffee, Bagel and Time

With walker support he enters the door
He’s there every day, from 10 to 4.
Orders coffee and bagel’d cream-cheese
Then sits there for hours with hands on his knees.

He sits near the window and watches his past
Within his mind as old shadows cast
His vague recollections of sweet reverie
Which only his fading memories see

A smile now and then

My Bagel

I EAT 
AROUND THE HOLE 
IN MY BAGEL
SO THAT WHEN 
IT'S ALL DONE
THE BAGEL
AND THE HOLE
WITH THE WORLD
WILL BE ONE
