Come on down to McCrunchy’s Café
Come on down today!
For breakfast you’ll fare the most –
an ironic side of bacon,
unchallenged eggs over-easy,
even some wry toast –
one jittery cup of coffee; to-go.

Now, this is just brilliant:

Love the flow of this. So clever.

Thanks! Hang around punsters way too much – there is no vaccination; no cure.

Nice menu of things to eat and drink with emotional descriptions perhaps suggesting what one should feel like after eating or drinking them.

Wow, this was hard to swallow! I should have written this. You do hang around with punsters too much. (Horrid habit, that — punning.) This was a giggle to read! Great work.

Who can resist a poetic pitch like this? Not me! Extra crispy on the bacon, please. And keep the coffee coming until I climb the walls! 🙂 Great write, Jilly!

Sumptuous punny breakfast, though that strip of bacon might be too ironic for a pescetarian’s palate. Lol

Haha! Then let’s have fish for breakfast, shall we? I don’t eat bacon and cold salmon is perfect in the morning.
