Sublime Rhyme With Three Scoops Of Dream Cream, Please! Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

cherry fizzing, ice cream-drizzling-
chocolate drop? oh, thanks a lot!
fudgesicle fudgesicle barely a

nickel; bread and butter pickle,
have another? asked my Grandmother
marshmallow fluff fluff fluff

spread with honey on a
crust crust crust of
bakery bread.tres flakery...

that's what I said (and, it's a word now)

oh how could you show-off
when we're supposed to be
supposed to be good.

yum. beef stroganoff
with baby pearl onions...

have you had enough?
cordially, she asked, while
passing the cordial cherries

for supper.(we had a light lunch)

on shoestring potatoes o
crunch of crunch.

shall we get her
candy in the big red box
or milk luscious bubble bath in the

real milk bottle with the lavender ribbon...
you got to be kiddin'! ! !
oh orange peel lolly and jam glad dollies

why would you dawdle? when candy's so bella
well what would you do oh Cinderella
how would you plan it if it were you

out picking presents for your Grand who's
sure to ask if we want some too!
