Afternoon Delight
strawberries in rich sweet cream
a frozen dish my tongue predicts
the afternoon hot
I drink it
through a straw
like pop
strawberries mixed with sweet cream
frozen and served in a cone
as afternoon heats
slip
slide
plop!
frozen strawberries and fresh cream
an afternoon delight in dish or cone
my tingling tongue is quick to lick
before
calamity
consumes it
