Let's re-live the Ode to the Otter Pop, shall we?

As the weather warms, my mind returns to the night of the "Otter Pop." Let's re-live it...

Last night as I lay down in bed,
I was thirsty. I was hot.
Then to my mind came the perfect treat,
"Go get an Otter Pop!"
Then I realized much to my surprise,
They do more than quench your thirst.
Otter Pops are “magical”
I was so excited- -I thought I’d burst!
We eat them when we are happy.
We eat them when we are sad.
They help cheer up a lonely child,
And stop fights when we are mad.
You can put them on a knee that’s skinned
'Cause you wiped out on your bike.
You can use them for refreshment
When you are in the mountains on a hike.
Did you ever think a tube so thin,
With flavored water it is filled,
Could solve small problems in our lives?
What a simple answer….to be sure, I’m thrilled!
So next time you are sad, or mad,
Lonely, bored, or even weary.
Have yourself an Otter Pop-
And smile…..it’s all OK…..really, really!
GOTTA LOVE IT!!!!
