Beautiful Cheeses, By: Benjamin Stone

May 10, 2024 by Benjamin Stone

Beautiful Cheeses, By: Benjamin Stone

The richness of cheese
The thickness of reams
Of paper cannot be debated.

The first bite is heaven.
I think I’ll have seven
Or eight if it takes to be sated.

There isn’t one kind—
The sharp with the rind—
I have to try all ‘ere I die.

Cause nothing quite pleases
Like beautiful cheeses.
And that, my good friends,
Ain’t a lie.

[This is a Featured Poem from our Spring 2024 Poetry Contest.]
