The Perfect Combination

by jack

 

 

A-1 on your sirloin

Butter on your bread

Chocolate on your ice cream

Or butterscotch instead

 

Cream cheese on your bagels

Jelly on your toast

Maybe peanut butter

Which do you like the most

 

Salsa for tamales

Lemon for your fish

Onion dip for vegetables

Delicious on your dish

 

Pinto beans in chili

Carrots cooked in stew

Bacon on your meatloaf

Chicken cordon bleu

 

Chives on your potato

Sugar in your tea

Pickles on your burger

Crackers for your cheese

 

Garlic for your pasta

Sauce upon it too

Milk poured in your cereal

Slices of fresh fruit

 

Gravy on your biscuits

Sausage would be nice

Cocktail sauce for jumbo shrimp

In a bowl with ice

 

Syrup on your pancakes

Frosting on your cake

Cream upon your peaches

A salt and pepper shake

 

Caramel on your apples

Seafood and white wine

Cottage cheese upon your pears

It’s so much fun to dine

 

Mayo on your sandwich

Ketchup on your fries

Dressing on your salad

Whipped cream on your pies

 

So many combinations

That we see each day

When we’re having dinner

Breakfast, lunch or play

 

To enhance each other

Nothing left to waste

Flavors come together

In the name of taste

 

There’s one combination

The best one I can see

Not to do with eating

Because it’s you and me

 

So perfect now together

Like ham on top of cheese

Lettuce and tomato

Onions in your peas

 

Or mustard on your hotdog

Relish on it too

The perfect combination

Is always me and you

 

Wonderful together

Sometimes sweet or tart

Soft and always tender

This love inside our hearts

 

Of all the combinations

Only one will do

That is when my arms are wrapped

Tightly around you

 

Combining of our hearts

Knowing that it’s true

This combination built on love

Forever me and you

Now just to decide if I want a steak, biscuits and gravy, or a hot fudge caramel strawberry sundae. :)

[Jack...]

That sounds like a very tough choice to make to me.
