Ice Cream For Lunch
The greatest lunch I've ever known
Consists of just an ice cream cone.
The flavor may be stuffed with chips
To form a dam against the drips...
Or else have nuts to add some crunch
And justify it as a lunch;
But even choices smooth and creamy
Make a mid-day meal that's dreamy.
Health food folk won't understand
And might resort to reprimand,
Reciting every benefit
That quinoa has to keep one fit.
But keep your salads and your grains.
This is one chick who still refrains
From lunches served within a bowl;
Each lick a smile remains my goal!
