I’m not one to wax philosophical leading to fits of poetry. I can’t honestly remember the last poem I wrote but what the hell. This is going to suck…trust me.
| Board Games Are Like Ice Cream Flavors |
| Some are simple, others wild Some are loved, others reviled |
| Some are bland, others spicy Some are hyped, others dicey |
| Some are gourmet, others without cream Some are straight vanilla, others heavy with theme |
| Some are good with tea, others with pie Some are good with coffee, but none with rye |
| Some are good in winter, others in the sun Some are rather boring, others are quite fun |
| Some are for gobbling, other to savor Some are more abstract, others rich in flavor |
| Some are heavy with bits, others nary a bump Some are eaten often, others we’d much rather dump |
| Some are good for groups, others for solo play Some are better when it’s dark, others for the day |
| Some are three in a box, others the same with each bite Some are flat and uninviting, other stacked high are a sight |
| Some are quite taxing, others tedious to finish Some are hard to get rid of, others you need to replenish |
| Some are best for repeated play, others you have to petition Some are not to be surpassed, others need another edition |
| Some are good for kids, others with your honey Some are quite cheap, others require lots of money |
| Some are painful when taken too quickly, others are safe if you’re stocky Some are quite easy to swallow, others quite rocky |
| Some are about sugar and rum and nuts, others deal only with fruit Some are exactly as described, others require changes to suit |
| Some are bought in a store, others are homemade with a crank Some are best forgotten, others you discuss, compare, and rank |
| Some are good with more toppings, others without variation Some are enjoyed in geographic regions, others all over the nation |
| Some are well known as a 31 flavor, others only to a small group Some are evolved with a complex dimension, others still stuck in primordial soup |
| Some are riddled with nuts, others are plain and a bore Some are rare and difficult to obtain, others are found in every store |
| Some are best taken in really small scoops, others with a really big spoon But all are best enjoyed throughout the night when all can sleep ’til noon |
