Though some may say it’s beer,*

We’re talking bread right here…

Varied grains

In which reigns,

Human survival and cheer!

–

Talk of an upper crust,

The part of bread most fussed…

Perfect brown

On it is borne,

Standards widely discussed.

–

Bread, a common staple,

Generally not tastes maple…

Bread can be sweet

Special days eat,

Whenever and often as able.

–

Preparation of dough,

Determines uniqueness we know…

Bag a fresh loaf

But don’t be an oaf,

Eating it all, before it gets home!

–Jonathan Caswell

*Beer is about as old in origin as bread….as Egyptian hieroglyphics show. Martin Luther and his contemporaries knew beer as “liquid bread”…having the same ingredients as bread…more-or-less, just fermented and drank.
