At Hagen -Daz it's free cone day
and you should see the line.
It stretches for two blocks or more
in fashion Serpentine.
Those in the loop
will get a scoop
of premium ice cream.
Though payments not required-
it does cost them their time.
For the store it's not a total loss
to give free cones one time.
Its advertising you can't buy
to see those folks in Line.
The sun is bright, the air is cool
most pleasant by degree.
So many people wait on line,
but there you won't catch me.
Its not that I don't like ice cream-
My girth show that's a lie.
It's just there are much better things
a poets hands can try.
I'd write a song, record a score
If I am so inclined
or steal a kiss from my lady fair
since I am not on line.
The years are ever shorter now
and shorter still my time.
Let others waste this precious gift,
whilst i enjoy this wine.
