I have read this poem from my book
when summer's in the city and brick's a blaze of heat
the ice-cream man with his little cart
goes trundling down the street.
beneath his round umbrella
oh, what a joyful sight
to see him fill the cones with mounds
of cooling brown and white
vanilla,chocolate,strawberry
or chilly things to drink
from bottles full of frosty-fizz
green,orange,white or pink
his cart might be a flower bed
of roses and sweet peas
the way the children cluster round
as thick as honeybees
the ice-cream man with his little cart
goes trundling down the street.
beneath his round umbrella
oh, what a joyful sight
to see him fill the cones with mounds
of cooling brown and white
vanilla,chocolate,strawberry
or chilly things to drink
from bottles full of frosty-fizz
green,orange,white or pink
his cart might be a flower bed
of roses and sweet peas
the way the children cluster round
as thick as honeybees
