Cheese Pot-Noodle

I am the cheese pot hunter
starting in the wood
that lines the lips of Cheddar Gorge
where cheese pot hunters should.
 
She says the cheese pot’s hidden
in the magic wishing well
“So slide inside and find it”
begs my darling baby, Belle.
 
She hopes I’m going to find this pot
and her urging’s getting louder.
She only knows the great big ‘O’s
of thinly sliced Dutch Gouda.
 
But, if I can find her cheese pot
she won’t ‘Go Dutch’ again,
so I am very Caerphilly
exploring the terrain.
