A Challah

A challah is a braided bread -

With butter, it’s delish.

It looks impressive when it’s whole

And waiting on a dish.


But when it’s time to eat it,

Many raise a bread knife - but,

It’s so much better with a piece

Ripped from the loaf - not cut.


I always grab a hunk this way;

Its texture, so enticing,

Is pillowy and soft and doesn’t 

Taste the same with slicing.


Here’s one more tip - some bakers 

Overstep and are quite brazen,

But to me, it is a shonda*

Eating challah filled with raisin.


*a disgrace
