Ice-cream Island

letter 

"I"

I wrote this little verse when I was teaching my young children to differentiate between the 'i' in 'igloo' and the 'i' in 'island.'

ICE-CREAM ISLAND

I've an ice-cream island in my mind

Piled with ice-creams, every kind.

High and wide and shiny bright!

Ice-creams, ice-creams pink and white

An ice-cream island in the sea

With all the ice-cream meant for me!

What a vision of delight!

Ice-cream, ice-cream, pink and white.

On my bike I'd like to ride

Round and round and side to side;

Here a lick and here a bite!

Ice-cream, ice-cream pink and white.

An ice-cream island! Oh what fun!

But what would happen in the sun?

My ice-cream island then I guess, 

Would dribble away in a gooey mes!
