He's Just a Loaf

A Summertime WISE-ISM by Beverly Stock.

It’s just some bread:

That looks like a dog.

He loafs around all day.

Is his yeast infected?

Only a baker could say.

I love his big brown snout,

AND he’s very, very, knead-y.

Of knead-y stuff, I’m worn out.

Even though I tend to boast,

If he loafs tomorrow, he’ll be toast.

My poem was inspired by the internet image from

JOKES, PUNS & FUN, posted initially by
