Ode to a Burger (something fun for a change)

Have you ever eaten a classic Coco's Cheeseburger? This popped into my head after eating one. I hate burgers, and yet every time I go to Coco's I get one because they are the best burgers I have ever enjoyed.



Ode to a Burger
Oh Wonderful burger
all beefy, juicy, and hot,
dripping grease, sauce,
and gooey melted cheese.
Pillow soft bakery bun,
toasty tender frame,
sticks to the roof of my mouth.
Leafy lettuce languishing
luxuriously on top of
tomato red and ripe.
onion slices, thin and crispy,
and pickles,
what can I say about pickles?
Tart, tangy counterpoint
to sweet secret sauce.
oh wonderful cheeseburger,
my shirt wears you well.
