Life offers us the opportunity to celebrate every day. Today is National Creamsicle Day, it sparks memories of my childhood. Particularly of the ice cream truck. Orange Creamsicles were one of my favorite treats. This memory is the inspiration for today’s poem.
ICE CREAM TRUCK
Memories of summer nights,
and childhood delights,
we were never home,
we were free to roam,
there was a noise,
that brought us joy,
the ice cream truck melody,
made heading home a necessity,
hoping mom or dad,
would be glad,
to buy us an ice cream,
they mostly would it seemed.
With money in our pockets,
we sped like rockets,
to catch the truck,
and hope for good luck.
That our favorite treat,
to beat the summer heat,
was not sold out,
and cause a pout.
Don’t get me wrong,
the pout didn’t last long,
because we rejoiced,
in our second choice!
