Ode to Nacho Cheese by Amber
Ode to Nacho Cheese
O' nacho cheese, shining bright yellow,
Just the sight of you can make a man bellow.
Gooey, liquidy sauce made for us to mellow,
Without you these are just chips without the nacho.
You bring us happiness when we see your glow.
When you hit our table, how can we say no?
Beautiful memories, your scent brings.
Football stars we loved, our class rings,
And the chants that everyone sings.
When we won our games, we were kings.
We were on top, like we had sprouted wings.
Only you can bring back these things.
O' nacho cheese, you give us what we lost.
The youth stolen, time's unfortunate cost.
Just like the fall's dead leaves covered in frost,
Stolen away by the master mind, Jack Frost.
But I promise our leaves will defrost,
And we will leave with us being the boss.
But until then, I will sit here and enjoy you,
Your spicy bite that is way past due,
And all those memories that are renew.
I know that when I'm done, I must bid you adieu,
And return to my life having grew.
Know this, I owe these memories to you.
