The freshest of bread and crustiest crust
Two slices will do, cut thickly a must
This one is toasted a nice golden brown
It must not be burnt, no fooling around!
Spread on both sides with real mayonnaise
Don’t be too stingy with your spreading ways
This is not time to be holding it back
Much will be needed for this sandwich stack
Perhaps from your garden, the plumpest tomato
(Chips on the side, made from local potato)
Crisp lettuce green that frills at the ends
The nicest of textures this ingredient lends
Now the important piece de resistance
Crunchy thick bacon my only insistence
For my perfect sandwich, at least it’s to me
The one and the only, the great BLT!
I’ve eaten so many I’ve surely lost count
But I will eat more in whatever amount
I know this assertion to be tried and true
Perfection in sandwich is so hard to do.
Don’t worry if eating it all of the time
For loving a sandwich is never a crime!
