Ode to Bacon
Oh sweet bacon that comes from above,
You had me at hello – it was pure piggy love.
You are everything I need or wanted in a meat.
With you sweet lover on my tongue, I feel so darn complete.
I love to watch you sizzle and pop on that grill.
Your oozing fat's delicious, your texture is a thrill.
You get along with everyone but can stand on your own.
If taste was a kingdom, you'd have a porky throne.
I come before you now to get down on my knee.
If you say yes, dear Bacon, I'd just die in jubilee.
I'd love you till forever, I'd never say goodbye.
The day I'd stop loving is the day that piglets fly.

Ode to Bacon (And How I Love Thee)
Ode to bacon and how I love thee,
For without you and your salty goodness,
Your meaty charms,
I'd be quite hungry.
Oh bacon,
how wonderful you make the world.
You're the one food that improves everything it touches,
Other than cheese or peanut butter of course.
Just one slice of you,
Or maybe two or three,
And a mediocre sandwich becomes divine,
A dull salad turns tasty.
And luckily for me,
Bacon can be eaten anytime of day,
In anyway, with any dish,
It's a versatile crunchy meat,
A delicious treat.
