Essence of the Scoop

Perspective on a Frozen Confection

By Conny van BalenPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

We are all ice cream in a crispy wafer cone

Cool, calm and fresh in our refrigerated home

Afraid to leave our icy zone

And lose the firmness of our dome.

The Summer sun brings a sweltering heat

Our cold, rigid form it will befuddle

Soften, thaw and melt our frosty treat

Into a shapeless creamy puddle.

Rich Chocolate, vanilla and strawberry flavour

Our colours and essence are uniquely diverse

In truth there is so much more to savour

Vast endless variety in the Universe.

The Crispy cone we have saved to the last

Our delicious divine sweetness is unsurpassed.
