| Today's Blog week Birthday Bastion prompt was to write an entry inspired by this quote: Quote: “Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese.”  ― G.K. Chesterton. I was debating whether to write a poem about Cheese or go with a standard talking to the reader blog entry but as the blogs requested have a minimum word limit I'll have to lean into the standard blog style as I am not sure I can write 350 word poetry about cheese. My gut feeling when reading the quote initially was that can't be true... can it? However, when I thought about it no immediate cheese related poems easily can to mind. The closest ones that came to me was more of a phrase then an actual poem: "The moon is made of Green cheese". The other one that I thought of was the Farmer in the Dell which is more of song then a poem as well. I did a google search to confirm and a few showed up mostly as a way to counter the quote above. https://www.quotegarden.com/cheese-poetry.html None of these were fully familiar to me but in one the moon getting compared to cheese gets a nice call out. I am unsure if that poem itself is the originator of the comparison. I feel like there should be more. Is there a classic nursery rhyme or other poem that I am forgetting? Anyway now that I'm within the a more manageable word count, let me try an attempt at cheesy poet. There are a lot of styles to choose from but lets go with Limericks today or at least variations of it.  The word that I heard being teased Is no poems exist about cheese. Let it not be said That I can't make a spread Full of cheddars and goudas and bries! Melted swiss cheese is sure to delight Used on burgers or toast its all right Melted down with some heat It can make a mean treat And adds one tasty kick in each bite! Mozzarella a topper as well Used on pizza it is tasty as hell. But when breaded and fried It is good to be tried. It's a snack that is definitely swell!
