Rarely does one not like ice cream:
Strawberry, vanilla, chocolate—more.
The cone. The sandwich. And the bar.
Homemade, or, bought from the store.

Check out the fave banana split
Or the apple pie ala mode.
The tasty chocolate sundae is
Remembered in this ice-cream ode.

There are many ice cream flavors:
Blueberry, peach and coffee too.
Lime, orange, cherry. Butter pecan;
Whatever’s uniquely you.

And let me be the first to say
‘Happy National Ice Cream Day.’
FOOTNOTE: National Ice-Cream Day is July 19 each year.
