Double Dip Dilemma
Children at the ice cream store, are staking claims with hungry eyes
But all those choices, ....how to pick, while clutching dollars for their prize?
On their tip-toes,...peeking in, frost on noses like cherry roses!
Standing there in mute despair, like indecisive millionaires !!
With fifty flavors waiting there, tempting them to choose a pair
How to choose a double dip?
Should they get the chocolate chip, strawberry or bubble gum?
Praline cream or butter rum?
All those flavors ...is there one, that satisfies a drooling tongue?
Finally mommy has a plan...
Tell the smiling ice cream man
Two yummy ice creams......in the cones
Two different pints to carry home!
