Gouda lovin'

by Shannon McEwen

I tried to cut through the cheese
To get to your gooey centre
Feel your softness

Smell your fragrance
Nibble at your corners
Understand your silent stance

Be at your emotional core
Love your shape
Feed on your goodness

Sadly my knife was dull
My fears like saran wrap
A lonely disappointment

Even though
I myself
Just cut the cheese

Being a smoked gouda fan, this title caught my attention. This was vibrantly done, so I could picture you lost in the wry thoughts of how cheesy your emotions can be...

This poem made me both sad and hungry, in the best way possible.
