A Coconut Lick

I do truly love my ice cream
nowadays so much of a choice
so many flavours dark and light
but there's one that's my Rolls Royce

This one's the one I always ask for
not every cafe has it in stock
sometimes very hard  to find
when one has it causes me a shock

It's especially great with strong taste
O forgot to say my fav's coconut
real so cool succulent and cold
even helps me talk when I stutt

My fav places to get this speciality
without fail in Southport's Lord street
also at Kilmarnock my old home town
these two can never ever be beat

Don't like the ones mixed with choc
it's got to be real coconut so pure
have to go now feel urge come on
coconut ice cream there's really no cure

(My favourite ice cream is super duper Coconut, Southport and Kilmarnock are in the UK.)
