O! great circular form;
a marriage of dough and cheese
of sauce and herbs and many things
depending on what we please.
You do not care the circumstances
or request a type of dress.
Thou are appropriate at all times
and only occasionally make a mess.
From fires in a gourmet brick oven or
a simple toaster muffin made,
you always will delight my tongue
and your flavors seldom fade.
I do not wish to argue
about the merits of pineapple;
perhaps it’s best to stick to cheese
and avoid a minor grapple.
A simple margherita
will usually do the trick,
but once in a while a fancy meat
becomes a better pick.
Some prefer a deeper crust
or a giant folding slice.
But me, I’m happy with all kinds
to satisfy my vice.
O pizza! O pizza!
You are the perfect food:
Adaptable and changeable;
the best, I must conclude.
