Yum. I've been craving ice cream sundaes lately. Not the lame-o kind either. Real vanilla icecream with hot fudge sauce. Anyway, your poem goes right along with my vibes!

RJ Clarken said...

Your 'unique' poem is a fun, tasty treat!

Mary said...

Beautiful, Laurie. I love not only the arrangement but the tasty words. I can see the ice cream drip (almost).

Judith Richards Shubert said...

Yummy! Filled with my favorite ice cream, too. Love this inspiration.

Sherry Blue Sky said...

Love it! But too tired to go to the store so this will be an unsatisfied longing!

S.E.Ingraham said...

Helen said...

Love where you went with this!!!

PS .. word verification is 'cremas' how about that?

rch said...

I've binged on your creativity and found it quite satisfying.

Peggy said...

I like this Laurie, the words, the shape and the picture. Good package! I assume this is a photo of a blue bell seed?

Victoria said...

the shaping is fun and hte content makes me hungry.

Jinksy said...

Hurrah! A poem with no black angst to spoil vanilla sweetness...

kaykuala said...

Your verse depicts a nice picture form. It is a clever way of indicating the shape of the cone. It also shows the depleting nature of the ice cream inside. Great Laurie!
