It's funny how ice cream
Just makes you feel that much better
Like putting on your favorite
Night time sweater
It wraps your tongue
With so much more
Then sweets and treats
And taste buds galore
You start to remember
When it was just out of reach
And someone had to scoop it
For all to eat
It put smiles on faces
With scoops of sprinkles and fudge
Sometimes it would even come
In a root beer mug
A friendly helping
for every pair
Of little hands
Asking for their share
It was all worth the smacking lips,
The loud sips,
and messy drips
EVERYWHERE!
But before all that...
There was always
Someone handing out the fun
It was the lady
With the big spoon
That we all called Mom. -- Happy Mother's day --
