To My Nieces and Nephews
If I could
I would mail this ice cream
- Or maybe frozen yogurt? -
Just to you.
It might be ice cream,
But I think it's frozen yogurt,
Which is better -
In my humble* opinion.
One is star-shaped
And sprinkled with Pop Rocks
- Yes! It pops in your mouth!
Another has bubble gum
As its popsicle stick.
I haven't tried
A third kind
But it's shaped like a slice
Of watermelon!
*that's French for "humble"

And I thought you were singing Regina Belle's emotionally-charged "If I Could"! See? I read posts, especially as I come home, plonk in front of the PC, undress (office shirt and outdoor shoes--what were you thinking?), and salivate over lovely words coming from friends like you.
Plonk.
