Description
Childlike moment spurred on by ICE CREAM!
{the actual poem title, it wouldn't fit}

The grumbly
in my tumbly
it made a pitiful moan

I can't ignore the tumbly
if I do it hurts me so

I nearly drop my husband's cup
while he gives me the stink eye face
We act like a couple of kids
as if our lunch is a race

This lunch it was
not a dramatic meal
fast food
never a big deal

but then I heard about the
free treat
how sweet
that we got at the end of the meal

free ice cream!
that's what she said!
I get free ice cream!
Ice cream "yummy" I said

Don't eat too much
and get stuck
with no room
for the ice cream leftover

or at the very least
remember the drink
you got to spoon the remainder

You see I threw mine away
and I'm sorry to say…
…my drink was root beer
today

I threw away a root beer float!?!?!
I moan, I cry, I mope
