I Scream, You Scream…
By Abby N. Wooldridge
Fighting over ice cream in the blazing heat
caused a situation that was terribly unsweet.
Bickering about who got the biggest scoop
turned our treats to tons of messy melted ice cream soup.
If we cannot settle our dessert debate,
we’ll all scream for our ice cream will soon evaporate!
