Toffee Ice-Cream

\nThe weather’s improving, the sun’s in the sky,
\nTwo robins are spooning, they aren’t feeling shy,
\nWith spring all around us there’s reason to dream —
\nOf girls in bikinis, and toffee ice-cream.<\/p>\n
A daffodil forest on every grass verge,
\nMagnolia blossom’s begun to emerge,
\nA kingfisher preening beside a small stream —
\nAnd I’m sitting thinking of toffee ice-cream.<\/p>\n
For some it’s vanilla, or strawberry fool,
\nPerhaps raspberry ripple will prompt you to drool,
\nBut tempting and tasty as all of these seem —
\nI’d much rather wait for some toffee ice-cream.<\/p>\n
Now roll on the summer with soft-fruits to eat
\nAnd bare-legged ladies who promise a treat.
\nI’ll sit in the garden and try not to\u00a0 scream
\nIf nobody’s bought any toffee ice-cream!<\/p>\n
