Frozen Paradise

Raspberry Sherbet
as creamy as milk,
as soft as my pillow,
as sweet as me.

raspberry Sherbet
as smooth as my hair,
as hard as my head
as small as my brain.

raspberry Sherbet
as freezing as my freezer
melts in your mouth
melts like a Hershey in my pocket on a sunny day

raspberry sherbet
as fruity as the gum in my mouth
as red as a rose in a garden
raspberry sherbet is Heaven on Earth.

Raspberry sherbet is my absolute favorite desert. Mr. Kennedy made us write a poem about it and this is what i came up with.
