Burger Bliss

When I find I’m feeling down

I take a drive into the town

To a diner oh-so quaint

Not fine dining, no it ain’t

Chicken’s good, the breakfast too

But what I tell you, this is true

The burger’s what I came here for

I order one, sometimes one more

The melted cheddar, golden love

The bacon from the gods above

The meat is 80/20 grind

A finer grind you’ll never find

The fries are crispy golden brown

No better fries yet I have found

A crunchy pickle on the plate

There’s not a single thing to hate

Serve it with an icy Coke

The bacon, just a hint of smoke

In this burger found pure bliss

There is no finer food than this

Here you go, Rob!! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„

  10. Dear Kevin,

    I love your rhyme scheme.

    And you have made eating junk food into something that almost feels like fine dining!
