Ice Cream

''Like Ice Cream''

Having ice cream with you, 
Brightens the entire portrait in my youth.
Like catnip for a cat 
-- the     Reese's    fun never stops!
Like monkeys in a zoo, above a tasty sherbet treetop.

Ice Cream with you!
How sweet,  the imagery of 31 different treats 
Cold butter and  salty Placid water, with the works 
Amaretto peaches, and slushy sauce  --- twerk
Dandelion haven- above a marshmallow rocky road
Fireflies flicker around the fresh Lemon Drop Sky
A delightful sundae breeze on the crest of my tongue 
 Soft frozen chocolate dessert, nothing can go amiss 
 
Ice Cream with You!
So many to choose from, 
Savor the delicious flavor 
---of Butterscotch homemade rum

There's no other place I'd rather be
Lost Inside this forever hazel mint joy scenery 
The ultimate indulgence in one icy bite
A cream coconut cherry delight 
-served on the side with apple pie
In a cup, on a cone, my vanilla waffle boy 
Everything-- about-- you-- roams free 
like tubs of ice cream dreams

Listen to the sound of soft sprinkles cinnamon
The happy feeling that melts when you're around
I'm packing a giant scoop of Ice Cream from your heart

Adoring and Embracing Life
Every time you say the words
...I love you...

:)

Fart #2:. I mean...(partial DUECE) -when finished breaking of the piece, I may glance at it quickly, then I clean up my paper and move on. I do not edit or read the poems... just as I do not sit and stare at my shit, and marvel at it's glory or wonderful scent. When I hurt, the more magnificent the piece of shit is...ALso,there are several more parallels with this simile. I'm very confident you could think of them...YOU are one creative girl! Please Grab that pen and get UnConstipated! DSRTYR!

holy fuK! this is one COLD shot with HoT topping :"Having ice cream with you. Relives the entire portrait in my youth". Descriptive!~the first line is sWeet as it gets...7fave. (AND that is a short list of faves) OK...Now for the "Loaded" :) question...about taking a dump. All day my senses digest what's around, going on, emotions etc. etc...I NEVER plan any poems. Never think, and Bam an urge. much like shitting. The more "Food" taken in, the more Magnificent the dump,

My name is Ayesha Karim and in primary school a boy used to tease me, he would call me Ice Cream. I love Ice Cream as long as it is french vanilla or strawberry.
