The Smell of Pizza
The shop is alive with the smell of pizza
With scents it has had for a thousand years
The shop fills my nose with the smell of pizza
My mouth wants to try every flavor here
My teeth want to bite all the warm crispy squares that rise
behind oven doors.
My eyes wants to see where the pizza lies
on the plates and floors.
To lick up the melting and steaming cheese
and the pizza sauce.
To eat through the night
Like a knight who has fought through three wars!
I go the shop when I'm feeling hungry
I know I will smell what I've smelled before
My tongue will be pleased with the taste of pizza
And I'll chew once more!
