Do We Have a BFC Poet Laureate?
Posted by admin under Blizzard on
Isn’t it great? Blizz buddy Mike sent me this poem back in my first month as the Blizz Prez. THANKS, MIKE!
“Ode to Blizzards”
It used to be a blizzard
Was something to avoid
All that snow, wind and hassle
Just left me all annoyed
But Dairy Queen invented
The Blizzard soft serve treat
That tempting mountain of taste
So magical and sweet
Now Blizzards don’t bother me
Nor do they ruin my day
I just run over to my DQ
And I will get to say
Make mine a Mint Oreo, please
Take me from this wintry place
Let me lose myself at DQ
Put a smile back on my face
I love it, Mike! SO FANTASTIC!
Y’know, I write a little poetry myself… You want to read it? Well, KEEP CHECKING BACK!
But what I want to know is what other BFC talent is out there? Who else is a poet? Or a songwriter? Or an interpretive dancer? Or a soft serve juggler? ANYTHING. Send it over, I WANT TO CHECK IT OUT!

Dairy Queen,
Dairy Queen,
where’s your bean?
Not great but better than nothing says this great grandma…
hey I used to get free coupons for a buy 1 get 1 blizz free and do not get them anymore. Only way hubbie & I cna afford to go to get a DQ.
Only the Lonely,
Know why I cry,
Went to DQ
and tried to buy
They were out of my favorite
Blizzard fixins, so my tears
did not lie,
Only the Lonely…
Good thing you can’t hear me sing….
hey that poetry wasn’t so bad! good job:)
I feel the same way – I tried printing a buy one, get one coupon and when it didn’t work, I sent out an email. Not only did I not get my buy one, get one blizzard, no one wrote back to me either.
Talk about poor business practices! =P
Did anyone try February’s blizzard of the month? I missed it…but maybe I can still get one…I think vanilla soft serve, cherry syrup and oreo cookie pieces would be really good – wasn’t that sort of what Feb’s blizz was like?
Of course, anything with peanut butter and chocolate is my kind of thing too. Yum!
I wonder what my baby will like when s/he is born in August…I’m sure at that point, I’ll LIVE at DQ…lol
Not much of a poet, but here’s my try;
Lament
Went to DQ to get a treat,
ice and snow covered the street.
Arrived on time and pulled up to order,but read the sign;
BE BACK IN SUMMER.
i love DQ ilove the blizzerds:):}

That poem was not as bad as some that I have read.
looks like i am not the only one that isnt getting my buy one get one blizzard coupon…… just have to do without i guess!!!
Does anyone else get upset when you have eaten about 1/2 to 2/3 of your blizzard and hit nothing but vanilla ice cream?? The blizzard maker needs to make sure to add enough product to the ice cream and then mix it all the way through!
Love blizzards
I love my dq blizzards
theyre creamy and theyre sweet
everytime i get them
i think about my treat
theres twingles in my toes
my heart is beating faster
my eyes are getting big
my tongue is getting twisted
im feeling like a pig
my stomachs getting hot
but when i get that treat
it cools down on the spot.
I’m in llllllloooooovvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeee with the chocolate xtreme blizzard in dq

Why is it that Choco Cherry Love is only good in February? ANy other time I go to get this awesome blizzard(made with chocolate ice cream of course!) they ruin it by not using the chunks of chocotlate but substituting the chocolate shell syrup they use on dip cones. It’s awful, making thin tasteless little flakes of chocolate instead of flavorful bites of yummy chocolate chunks. It must be cheaper than reordering the chunks. The worst part is I never know until I drive away and try the first few bites and then I’m so disapointed it will be another year.
I’ve tried several DQ’s and they all do the same thing.
I love everything they have at DQ!
Hi, I loooove carmel waffle crisppp!!! Yum!! hey prez,how about doing a poll to find out how many want to see the All-American Blizzard return for July’s flavor of the month(it had red white & blue m&m’s)? If enough do you can share that with you know who. sheri
HI I LOVE BLIZZARDS THEY ROCK! WAHOOOOOOOOOOOO
The blizzards don’t seem to be as good as they use to be! They sure do not look like the pictures you publish. My daughter & I both notice this,. TOO BAD. HELLO SONIC!
Il0VE EVERY THING ABOUT DQS ICE CREAM
wow sonic now your getting cheap if you have to go to sonic. to me there is no comparison ,its DQ ALL THE WAY…..
On the summer road that ran by our front porch
BLizards and snakes came out to sun.
It was hot as a stove out there, enough to scorch
A buzzard’s foot. Still, it was fun
To lie in the dust and spy on them. Near but remote,
They snoozed in the carriage ruts, a smile
In the set of the jaw, a fierce pulse in the throat
Working away like Jack Doyle’s after he’d run the mile.
Aunt Martha had an unfair prejudice
Against them (as well as being cold
Toward bats.) She was pretty inflexible in this,
Being a spinster and all, and old.
So we used to slip them into her knitting box.
In the evening she’d bring in things to mend
And a nice surprise would slide out from under the socks.
It broadened her life, as Joe said. Joe was my friend.
But we never did it again after the day
Of the big wind when you could hear the trees
Creak like rocking chairs. She was looking away
Off, and kept saying, “Sweet Jesus, please
Don’t let him near me. He’s as like as twins.
He can crack us like lice with his fingernail.
I can see him plain as a pikestaff. Look how he grins
And swings the scaly horror of his folded tail.”
Please i beg u Bring back the thick uposide down blizzards and shakes I for one miss them.
Other Wise they rock
I think a good Blizzard flavor would be a Twix Bar Blizzard. You could put chunks of Twix bar in it PLUS extra caramel and cold fudge to make it even “Twixier”! What do you think?
