Bri's Favorite Ice Cream Flavors.... [ Response To Laurie Van Der Hart, On P H; Humorous; Ice Cream; Short; Fantasy ]



Laurie asked: 'Your favourite is? ',
to which I had to answer: 'Gee whiz,
ARE there flavors, MORE than one?
I eat so fast and, besides, I eat for FUN.

And it's cold and creamy and oh so sweet.
It just curls all ten toes upon my big feet.
If I'd known I had a choice I'd have said:
I'll take ANY flavor, each day till I am dead! '

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
in the title i have 'Favorite' because that is how i learned to spell it in these 'United States'. but in the poem body i spell it favourite, as Laurie, an 'African' living in Europe, spells it.

of course HUMANS CAN NOT HAVE UNIVERSAL PEACE AND GOOD WILL! ! ! !
WE CAN'T EVEN SPELL WORDS THE SAME WAY! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

THANKS, Laurie, for the challenge/inspiration. it was a quickie to write; i only had time to eat a quart of whatever-flavor-it-was ice cream. : (

I read it, I enjoy it.... I read the poet's note also Bri prefers to put.... and for myself I also spell as favourite as Indians... Anyway a good occasional poem that reminds me the line of the line.... 'I want to drink life to the lees' by Tennyson in his Ulysses.

I thought I had already left a comment on this poem! Wait! I'll bet I did! I see that you have copied and pasted Valsa's comment from September first. I remember reading her comment before, also. What that means is that you valued her comment more than mine, since you saved hers and not mine before you deleted the original poem. You love Valsa more than you love me! (Naturally, who wouldn't?)

Nice poem! I would write more about it but suddenly I felt that I want to have ice cream!

Valsa George Valsa George (9/1/2017 1: 27: 00 AM) Such a question is out of place in the case of Bri....! He is ready to compromise with any flavor if it is ice cream! A Limerick. - Ice Cream Day in and day out he would dream Of cream puffs and ice cream Why wonder who this guy None other than our Bri To have them he would go to any extreme! ===========================Valsa left the above comment on my unedited version of the poem. it just 'needed' to have Ph in the title changed to PH. so i have copied and pasted her comment on the newer, improved version so i can delete the other one. bri :)

Now I'm thinking about my favorite flavors of ice cream. It would have to be rum 'n' raisin followed by french vanilla, and mint flavored trumpets...yum.

Okay, don't rub it in! My wife put me on a starvation diet- no ice cream for Gino until maybe this time next year.
