Uncle Joe....

I was summoned to write a few words about the late great uncle Joe......I can't say I have much time on my hands as it took me about Seven Minute's, but a Trip to the Shrink's office maybe on the horizon


 uncle Joe you had a dream 
unlike Joseph's but dr martin Luther king's 
that kids would join hands together eating vanilla and chocolate ice cream
in an oasis of brotherhood they all chanted  let freedom ring 

 Uncle Joe you were The Captain of the ship   
 no one ever questioned why the ice cream was never chocolate chip 
 You were every generations universal Uncle Joe
 Even though you Simply refused to  grow 

 Uncle my Uncle you were the Whitman of Ice cream 
You bought the best flying Saucers, unlike Good humor or Mehadrin 
Our berachot we made were you're biggest treat 
we were grateful you weren't a Kohen, Cause you also had really smelly Feet

 You were an ice cream warrior 
with passion of a united postal mail courier 
Stopping many chocolate vs Vanilla fights
you were a champion of the ice cream civil rights

 You're spirit cried never, even when you're body stopped 
With you're inspiration we licked our ice cream to the last drop
 You've touched everyone, and prevented a lot of violence 
 That included the aged and those who are lactose intolerance 

 You're legacy lives on in the Minyan you Started for Free 
 The Torch has been passed to the Family of Bumbagee
