My Flavor of Ice Cream


Myself and I walk side by side, our personalities mixed.

I tell her that she is too sweet; she tells me that I am a mess.

Together we are one, with our flavors betwixt.

She is like fruit - a burst of fun - where I am like chocolate (told I'm the best.)

 

When mixed, we are nutty - crazy and wild;

We'd yell at each other in public, you see.

Others would say that I seem like a child,

But who can define myself other than me?

 

We are flavorful, powerful, bright, and reserved.

We are perfect, irregular, and contrasting too.

She and I know we give what is deserved:

Part sweet but all colorful - connected like glue.

 

Our name is unusual - not often heard;

Our quirks seem to suit her, accepted with smiles;

I, on the other hand, think we're absurd.

Yet it appears to work out - we each have our own styles.

 

Lastly, though strange, we still get along;

If we weren't one and the same, there'd be matrimony.

Us living together should be so wrong,

But life has formed us into lovely spumoni.

I've written poetry since my freshman year of high school (Ironically it started with a love poem) and have continued ever since.
