ICE CREAM



ICE CREAM

Life is
An ice
Cream...

So delightfully
Engaging
When one 
Is small
But
Predictably
Dull
As one
Grows old.

Rarely
Can
Ice cream
Surprise
Me...

The flavors
Are so 
Well known
It's hardly
Ever worth 
Getting
Excited
Over!

As a kid
I used
To
Enjoy
The cold 
Flavors
But now
I feel
It's overrated.

Oh ice cream
Does have
It's
Magic,
Don't get me
Wrong...

It's just that
I know
The tricks
Of it all.

I'll tell you
Since you
Have taken 
The time
This
Poem to read...

Ice cream.
Is a creamy
Liquid
Invite
To coughing 
Sneezing
Dream.  

Achingly
Disappointing!

Do you
Still like
Ice cream?

Oh, do
Tell me!
