During discussion in a poetry class last week, someone posed the question, “Is ice cream a decision?” Rather than allow us to become completely sidetracked, the instructor wisely turned the question into a writing assignment. If you feel inspired to join the fun, please post your poem in the comments or link back to this post from your own blog so I can read it. 🙂
Is ice cream a decision?
It is an imperative, a command
that cannot be ignored, force
powerful beyond the imagination
of resistance, second
only perhaps to air.
Flavor is the only true decision.
This one makes me think of a trip to Italy when I discovered gelato! We had to have some every day after our first taste!
Mmm.
Gelato.
Mmmmm.
(Thanks for inspiring another poem, Carla! 😉 )
Any time, Jennifer!
