The Most Important Meal

 

Rice Crispies

 

Snap and Crackle
I hear it well,

But there’s no pop
that I can tell,

Pop should be fizzy
tickle my nose,

Quench my thirst
as down it goes,

Pops in a bottle
not in a bowl,

Milk would surely
take its toll,

Snap and Crackle
as rice floats by,

if out of milk
just have it dry.

 

Corn Flakes

 

Corn flakes, Corn flakes
I would guess,

If left too long
a soggy mess,

 

Cheerios, just circles be
Sorry, but they’re not for me,

 

Captain Crunch
so military –

Coming off
a little scary,

 

Pop Tarts in a toaster be
push em’ down
then wait and see,

A little steep
on what they’re costing,

Burn your lips
on molten frosting.

 

 

Eggs and Bacon
toast and jam,
Waffles & a little ham

 

On second thought
I have a hunch –

I think that I’ll
just wait for lunch.

 

 To start my day
I'd be the wiser,

a doughnut and a cold
Budweiser.
