Steak is for breakfast

Paxton is so fun, no jest

he likes steak the best.

~

Dinner was so fast

Steak at the firehall last

It was such a blast!

~

Steak for everyone

Except allergies have won

Beef! Imagine Hon!

~

One of the worst ones

Goes away if a tick bite

Pets are the worst fight.

~

Everyone has them

Allegra everyday hmm

twice on many days!

~

S--t is what I say!

How did we even get here?

Allergies! Stay clear!

P.S. A senryu does not have to rhyme. I am just a rhyming kind of old gal!
