some people post poetry; i post letters to ice cream
i talked myself out of posting this on facebook, but i figured it was already written, and if silly, also true! so there you have it.
dear edy's "limited edition thin mint cookie,"
we first met a number of years ago. i've always cherished fond memories of the time we spent together, brief though it was. when i saw you in the grocery store the other day, i was excited. i recalled you as a rare wonder of the ice cream world. these days, however, you're not even ice cream. "frozen dairy dessert," really? what happened? i hesitated when i read those typically dooming words, but i decided to give you a chance for old time's sake. everyone changes, after all, and surely you would only have done such a thing if it were the right decision. unfortunately, right for your pocketbook isn't the same as right for our relationship.
we're through.
most sincerely,
carroll
