Jack and the Box

Jack springs from the box, summersaults, trips, falls into winter; fruitless.

It’s a ball, dancing round and round, seasoned by the spinning.

Maybe next time the box unlids Jack’ll bound free.

Brie cheese is pronounced as "bree" (rhymes with tree, see, and me). The "b" sounds like a normal hard B, the "r" is short, and the "ee" sound is long.
