dinosaur crunch

The first day of school

is a big day when you are

young. You celebrate.

We used to walk down

to the beach. Pick up our ice

cream at the window.

We ordered from a

long list in white all-caps font

on a black background.

I liked blue ice cream.

Dinosaur crunch, was it called?

Electric blue hue.

I also liked moose

tracks. Peanut butter cups and

chocolate ribbons.

The store closed down and

I can't remember the last

time I had those. I

can't remember when

I had the dinosaur crunch

and moose tracks ice creams.
