Ann Peck Poet Rhyme

Ice Cream Dreams

Can you imagine cream and sugar stirred
into snowy banks and winter flakes whirred.
Ice crystals forming into skating pond
for strawberries' axels and jumps beyond.

Chocolate trees stand, as limbs but a shell.
Gumdrops are children singing soft Noel.
Afternoon dish of strawberry ice cream:
tongue-lickin' good with room for tiny dream.

Suzanne Clear June 21, 2022 at 9:51 AM You made me remember a joyous time when we made "snow ice cream" after a winter snow!!!! I thank you dearly for emotions you let me rediscover! suzanne Ann Peck June 25, 2022 at 9:49 AM I remember snow ice cream! Probably not many make ice cream of any kind these days.
