still waiting on the front porch

for the ice cream truck

to come down our street

i hear

 the faint sound

of chimes

in the distance

any minute now…

  19. I have to admit I have not seen an icecream truck here in Dallas in a very long time. However, when we visited my family in Sweden an icecream truck came by even though it was far out in the country side. I wonder if they are dissappearing in the US.
