Frozen In Time

Freezing tongue,
oh my head!
What I wouldn't give
to be back there instead. 
Standing on the chair,
watching , waiting, anticipating. 
Please pick me, please pick me,
oh wait , there are two. 
One for me one for you. 
She hands me mine,
Ha-Ha, I'm first!
Licking , tasting,
still in heaven,
even if the order were reversed. 
So as I lick this creamy frozen delight,
reality awakens the senses,
Taking me back to the party that night,
licking the cake batter,
So many memories. 
I close my eyes
and go back to that place.
Frozen in time,
My mind will never erase...

Jodie, your poem reminded me how much I loved ice cream and licking the cake batter when I was a kid. Have to admit, though, I still love both. Thanks for the memories. Best wishes, Carolyn
