Candy

Such sparkling sweet tastes are in the sky

with colourfully flavoured clouds flying by,

a candyfloss sunset dyed by the day

signalling that these treats must fade away.

As we lie on the green candy cane grass

I want this golden tasting day to last

whilst gummy people pass us by jolly

and trees are blooming with bright red lollies.

I open my window and breath the scent

of tempting sights that tease and torment

for I want to gorge on this sweet beauty

tasting the sugar scenes glacé and fruity.

But I know that I must pace my feast

or else all beauty will one day be ceased

and all I'll be left with is a sickly gloom

that my glutton had caused this darkening doom.
