Not light on the calories, for sure, and now you've made this reader ravenous!

She's hungry ...

Lovely frivolous froth ! :)

With the mention of all these favorite food on the table, our stomachs are no growling and saliva oozing form our glands. So tempting and inviting these sumptuous food.
Have a great breakfast to start the day and don't starve - be happy and eat your heart out!
Cheerio, Ritchie.

Fortunately, I just had dinner--so, your little poem did not make me hungry! I enjoyed the regular pattern and your rhymes. Cheers- Joan

Well, that sounds like a Sunday morning breakfast fit for royalty. But I'm okay with granola and coffee. Creative poem. Great visual imagery. Excellent work.

Hi, Treischel,
This little jewel has rhythm and rhyme and good flow. It has delicious imagery. You must have written it before breakfast. It communicates hunger I enjoyed reading this.

Okay, Mr. T...now you've gone and done it! I just ate lunch, but now I want some biscuits and apple butter. Oh, the AGONY of it all...

A well-penned children's writing I enjoyed, with the spot-on rhyme incorporated for a smooth-flowing poem;
Good alliteration of "Bread and Butter;
The reading of this comes as I sit down to a bit of breakfast Tom, although it does not consist of your menu!

    Thanks Margaret. These days not considered healthy, yet how many generations were raised on such daily morning fare?
reply by Capricorn30 on 20-Jul-2013
    I agree--times have very much changed.

I like the alliteration of "bread and butter" and would love to see it repeated in the 4th line - maybe "helping of ham"? I think that would help add to the whimsy of this poem. I'm not sure what the 4/3 means, but maybe that's the format of the poem you're writing? I notice it alternates, 4 syllables with 3, in which case, my suggestion wouldn't fit the format.
Either way, this was very lighthearted and I'm grateful I already had breakfast because otherwise, this would make me very hungry.
Thank you for sharing.
