Charlie's Treat

The morning after... halloween

Yesterday I won a ride on a Willy ship

Wasn't long but a sweet little trip

Talked about the sun and jumbo gumdrops

Laughed at the moon and fuzzy lollipops

*

Weightless in a dark chocolate sky

Chasing ants �" Oh! How fast they fly

Confections consume, the slim lie waist-ed

The best of the worse I've ever tasted

*

Rainbow sprinkles linger, floating past

Though sugar eyes aren't meant to last

Adventures end on marshmallow bed

Sticky goo all stuck in my head

*

Tummy aches and tired teeth hurt

My cocoa now looks and tastes like dirt

But candy bars will, will never stop me

Needed warmth they’re enjoyed tooth free

*

Sliding down the licorice string

To rest in a basket bunnies bring

Waiting for hands of time to shake no more

Then I’ll re-wrap and go out for s’more
