Beryl Edmonds Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

A Yummy Sundae Afternoon

A Yummy Sundae Afternoon
My tongue anticipates ice cream sundae
But do never indulge on a Monday
For that's the day the diet starts afore 
Tuesday when diets fly out through the door.

I drool o'er yummy ice cream on my tongue 
Thoughts of the tasty dish makes me so long
For strawberries served at afternoon tea
In a gooey knickerbocker glory.

With chopped nuts sprinkled and strawberry sauce
Those ice cream sundaes could win an award
With me they would be scored top of the pops
I am an expert as I devour lots.

Summer parties do well serving ice cream
Strawberries and chilled wine, truly a dream
With music, dancing, a natter and fun
Bringing magic moments beneath the sun.

Betwixt lucky lips my eager tongue licks
A mouth watering afternoon dish fix.

Rico Leffanta July 2, 2022 at 11:30 AM You should instead head to Porto San Stefano (Italy) for the best ice cream on the planet! Aloha! Beryl Edmonds July 2, 2022 at 6:33 PM I wish, never have been to Italy and doubt that I ever will now that my circumstances have changed. The ice cream in Porto San Stefano sounds a dream.

Tom Beryl Edmonds July 2, 2022 at 1:04 AM Hi Tom, enjoy your Turkish holiday, keep cool with your delicious ice creams. Will have a few myself soon, my sister is kindly taking us on a break to Western-Super-Mare, by car as Alan isn’t yet able to climb stairs so a coach or train is out of the question. Thank you… Belle
