Trondhjem's Pie & Ice Cream Social 2013

Most who know me know I like to put together an annual poem to promote the Pie & Ice Cream Social of the church that I grew up in. This year is no exception. The 2013 Social is on Sunday, Sept. 15, beginning at 5 p.m. This poem is the eighth one I've created for my home church.
Trondhjem’s Pie & Ice Cream Social 2013

Listen up, All! Please perk up your ears!
The Pie & Ice Cream Social’s almost here!
September 15th is coming up quick;
Get here at five for your prime pie pick!

We’ll serve up our “famous” sloppy joe feast.
They’re messy, but worth it, to say the least.
Potato chips will accompany the meal,
And with donations freewill – what a deal!

If you want pie the most, that is all right –
You’re sure to find one to fit your pie appetite.
Will there be apple, strawberry or cherry,
Or something non-fruit? The choices will vary.

The silent auction takes place upstairs.
If the bidding is tough, some may “win” by a hair!
WELCA has a homemade quilt to raffle.
With tickets one dollar, the cost will not baffle.

Naatz Farms will be present to give wagon rides.
Their horses are pros, and they know their strides.
The donations for rides are always freewill,
So ride as much as you’d like to get your fill.

Our baked goods table will again be up.
It’s best to look at that after you sup
Unless you want a specific treat,
Then by all means, look before you eat!

Please join us on the 15th at five.
TLC will be a busy, buzzing hive.
We all want to greet you, so please come out.
There’ll be much to see, of that there’s no doubt!
