It was a Friday afternoon
We gathered on the couch
Watching an episode of Happy Days
The one when Mr. C got his tonsils out
They were talking how much ice cream
Was soothing to the throat after the operation
But if you ate too much, it had consequences
When it was over, we thought one thought
Let’s get some ice cream
My Dad and I went to the local grocer
In the middle of February
And bought the cheapest ice cream at $1.99
It was orange-flavoured and the last two litres of ice cream
Funny, I haven’t thought about that afternoon
But I miss those days…. even though, the memories are fuzzy
