i scream, you scream

we all scream for ice cream. Does it matter what kind?

Haagen Dacz
Ben and Jerry
Baskin Robbins
ice cream and cake at a birthday party
soft ice cream from the truck
Eskimo pie
ice cream sandwich?

Or how about a milkshake? Chocolate or strawberry?

Are you craving a taste of something frosty? Why not write me a poem instead. 10 lines, 10 poets, about everyone's favourite treat? It's such a simple thing but there's so much feeling, so many memories there

Rhyming if you like and don't let the ice cream make you careless about your spelling and punctuation.

Enjoy!
