Ode from a Sore Throat








Oh Popsicle!

Your cooling deliciousness never fails to please and delight!

From the moment you’re captured from the freezer

Into my lucky fingers

The wrapper lovingly loosened

Icy vapors rising up, cool meets hot!

I hold your wooden feet

Bite your frigid iciness

Cold on my irritated throat

Melting, glowing, sliding down,

Chilling me all through.

Your flavors start strong

Cooling me all along

As my tongue gets used to the sour, sweet and tasty differences

My throat calms, irritated no more

Happy as you teach me

The Joys of Popsicles!
