Minced garlic with tomato,
onion and pepper,
thick, cylindrical pasta
Mozzarella topped--
seared until golden.
Robust yet
sweet!...

I was hoping to give you a Cheddar life
But it was never Gouda 'nough 
Mozzarella I could never cheese you
But being provolone, it's tough...

Some say this pie is criminal,
mozzarella drenched with pineapple; 
Pizza to devour or throw 
euphoric or a waste of dough; 
Two palates, one robust battle....

Beethoven's  Symphony
Ode To Joy is like a pizza with pepperoni
Smothered in mozzarella
Made by an Italian fella  
Named Giovani and that's no baloney...

Warm melting mozzarella
Layered rich salami
Sprinkled with juicy olives
On tomato bed
Fresh oregano
Soft white bread
Yum

Put your ear a little closer to the phone,
Make believe that you and I are all alone.
I want to see you so badly, that I sigh,
But if my pepperoni mozzarella pizza is cold again, you will cry....

Tom Turkey’s tender meat waits
Lasagna’s served first
Enticing garlic scent wafts
Melted, fresh mozzarella
Layered with rich sauce
Temptation
Yield !


*Written October 26, 2014.  
;D  My brother-in-law’s family has no room for
turkey after eating the lasagna!...

even though
the world's heavy
and the fog
thick in San Francisco
when love
sinks a battleship


i know that
if i were to dip into a bag
of some fried mozzarella sticks
off a North Beach food truck
i'd become
one with the universe


floating
light on the sauce

See me 
I am Italy
Across the seas
Propaganda Papers be
Lie about me
I did not hide Mr. Famalli family
I am innocent I tell you retreat
Hide in bushes pass Florence city
Man please
Cheese pulled mozzarella pizza treats 
Fat sized balls rolled meat
Fingerprints hidden from police
They will never find me
Arrivederci!
Small minded sleep slumbering creep!...

My obese dog, Wunder-Mutt, 
was hungry.
I gave "fatty" some sausage pizza.
"Good boy" I jovially said.
"We shall both diet tomorrow."
He wagged his tail, to agree.

Then...Darn it!
I fell and hit my fat head.
Concerned, he licked left-over 
mozzarella off my double chins.
Ah, obesity~the joy that never ends!

I want to eat
cheesy down home goodness 
I want to be mozzarella vegan great 
to eat the best flavors right off 
a non-dairy plate 

but, honest finance 
has told me so 
I will never know 
vegan in this price range

I could stretch out my dough 
I could save up multitudes of pennies
but let's face it 
I will just have to 
let the dream go    

seventy-seven dollars
for vegan cheese  
I guess sadly 
vegan isn't for me...

Its basic ingredients are noodles and cheese.
This dish has been around for centuries.
The origin of lasagna is a mystery.
Most culinary experts credit Italy.
In just about any region where you go,
each place has their own version to show.
It comes hot out of the oven covered with mozzarella.
Within the layers are meat and ricotta.
There are vegetarian versions as well.
For lunch or dinner, isn’t lasagna swell?

Can you forget that piece of cheese
that you inhaled? Oh, just a crumb it was.
But breathing while chewing, then choking!
Was it Cheddar, Cheshire?

Or that Limburger, Parmesan?
But, oh, that piece of cheese!
Not a morsel you'll forget,
or a temporary amnesia that will bring you peace.

A double Gloucester, some feta or mozzarella?
What about that Parmigiana-Reggiano?
Better, far better, not to inhale
a piece of cheese. It's peace you need.
