It was a hot summer day
He wanted ice cream
Sounded like a plan
That was put into motion
He walked to the gas station
Grabbed a pint of cherry Garcia
He rushed back to his house
Hurrying so it wouldn't melt
Ready to savor the moment
He got a spoon and scooped
The taste of vanilla ice cream
Mixed with cherries chunks
His day was complete and set
Beating the heat with a treat
Each bite was a taste of delight
Easy mouth full got better
Melting on his tongue juicy
The flavor never ending felt right
Keeping him cool from the heat
