Treacle Melts

Treacle Melts Sail on sugar in the sweets On winds of chocolate powder And candy on the smack of lips Kisses in secret caramel places heard Over miles of creamy icing roads Lift up my savory love Whose fragrance is of pink and dreams Of treacle melting on the tongue And stories of flying fudge ships Told in confectionery verse By hungry children eating mints Tales fill the air once more Of fruit flavors sailing on And off the tongues of young ones With hints of magic and fresh breaths

Good morning Dr. Mehta. This was a fun and quirky write for me. I enjoy the exploration of toying with concepts and images outside the ordinary realm. Thanks for your kind words. Regards, Earl
